Richmond County, GA School System and Carnegie Learning Announce Math Curricula Development Partnership


“Richmond County is using Carnegie Learning® Math Programs at the high school level and we are seeing very strong results,” said Dr. Dana Bedden, superintendent of Richmond County School System.“We believe this partnership with a math leader like Carnegie Learning will result in performance improvements in middle school that will, ultimately, create even greater success and change in our high schools.”

In February 2008, Carnegie Learning, Inc. introduced a research-based, integrated mathematics program for Georgia’s secondary students designed, specifically, to meet new, more rigorous high school math requirements being implemented by the Georgia Department of Education in fall 2008. In the last 18 months, Georgia school districts have purchased $8 million of Carnegie Learning® Georgia Mathematics 1 and Georgia Mathematics 2 for high schools throughout the state.
