Welcome to the Newton Public Schools Middle School Family Math Page!
The goal of the middle school math department is to provide a mathematics program that ensures every child meets grade level benchmarks, and every child is challenged at his or her appropriate level.
A strong connection with families and communication about instruction and content contribute to student success. We have created this family page to provide information about our curriculum and resources you can use to help your children with math at home, including recommended apps, websites worth exploring, current research related to mindset in mathematics and articles from the greater world of math education.
We hope you find it useful.
