QUINCY — A Quincy Junior High School pilot of English language arts and math curriculum materials continues “going well” as the school year edges toward the halfway point. The School Board in June approved piloting Savvas 2025 my Perspectives and Common Lit 360 ELA curriculums and the McGraw-Hill Reveal Math, which already is used in K-5 classrooms, and Mid School Math’s Core Curriculum. Plans call for one group of ELA teachers to pilot my Perspective all year, while another works with Common Lit. In math, all the math teachers piloted Mid School in the first quarter, then shifted to Reveal Math for second, third and fourth quarters. “It’s giving our teachers some resources to be able to go to. It’s giving them opportunities to have really good conversations around instructional practice,” said Quincy Public Schools Director of Teaching and Learning Kim Dinkheller, who is overseeing the pilot.
