Massachusetts Curriculum Framework for Mathematics

Massachusetts Curriculum Framework for Mathematics adopted by the Board of Elementary and Secondary Education in March 2017. This Framework builds upon the foundation of the 2010 Massachusetts Curriculum Framework for Mathematics as well as versions of the Massachusetts Mathematics Framework published since 1995.

The current Framework incorporates improvements suggested by Massachusetts educators after six years of experience in implementing the 2010 standards in their classrooms. These revised pre-kindergarten to grade 12 standards are based on research and effective practice, and will enable teachers and administrators to strengthen curriculum, instruction, and assessment.

The 2017 standards draw from the best of prior Massachusetts standards, and represent the input of hundreds of the Commonwealth’s K–12 and higher education faculty. The 2017 standards present the Commonwealth's commitment to providing all students with a world-class education.
