The Silicon Valley Mathematics Initiative is a comprehensive effort to improve mathematics instruction and student learning. The Initiative is based on high performance expectations, ongoing professional development, examining student work, and improved math instruction. The Initiative includes a formative and summative performance assessment system, pedagogical content coaching, and leadership training and networks.
The Initiative is currently supported by member districts, the Kabcenell Foundation, and the Silicon Valley Community Foundation in collaboration with the Santa Clara Valley Math Project that serves as both a mathematics professional development provider and fiscal agent for many of the components of the Initiative.
