Proficiency Act — Legislative findings — Purpose. A. Sections 2 through 8 of this act shall be known and may be cited as the “Oklahoma Math Achievement and Proficiency Act”. B. The Legislature finds that it is essential for children enrolled in the public schools in this state to develop strong mathematical proficiency early and consistently. The Legislature further finds that clear and visible goals, assessments to determine math proficiency at each school, the use of scientifically based and researched methodologies in math instruction, along with regular and periodic measurements of school math improvement, and accountability at each level of the educational system will result in a significant increase in the number of children performing at or above grade level in mathematics. C. The purpose of the Oklahoma Math Achievement and Proficiency Act is to ensure that student achievement in math is encouraged and progression from one grade to another is determined, in part, upon proficiency in mathematics, that school district board of education policies facilitate promotion of advanced math instruction and intervention services to address student math needs, and that each student and his or her parent or legal guardian be informed of the student’s progress in mathematics. D. Each public school district in this state shall ensure that all students receive a well-rounded education focused on building deep foundations in mathematics, reading, and writing. The State Board of Education shall encourage school districts to integrate the teaching of the other curricular areas in subject matter standards adopted by the Board with the instruction of mathematics, reading, and writing. E. All teachers of mathematics in the public schools in this state shall incorporate into instruction the foundational elements of math instruction, including the development of grade-level appropriate mathematical proficiency which is a combination of real- world problem-solving skills, procedural fluency, conceptual understanding, and productive dispositions.
