NEW YORK, March 26 /PRNewswire/ -- The Providence Public School District in Providence, Rhode Island, has announced it plans to purchase four of Glencoe/McGraw-Hill's 2010 high school math programs, Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Geometry, and Advanced Mathematical Concepts: Precalculus with Applications, for the district's high schools. Prior to selecting Glencoe/McGraw-Hill's programs, the district conducted a thorough review of curriculum from a variety of publishers, with the guidance of The Dana Center at the University of Texas, Austin, which supports Grades K-12 teachers and leaders working to implement high academic standards for all students. Paula Shannon, director of K-12 Teaching and Learning for Providence Public School District, said that approximately 50 high school mathematics teachers in the district analyzed several research-based math programs and found that the Glencoe series best aligned to the Rhode Island Grade Span Expectations.
