NYC MATH REVOLUTION CONVENING
The next equation for nyc solves
Every student is a math person. We must give every NYCPS student the skills and confidence to reach algebra, calculus, and beyond, and to use math fluently in college, career, and civic life.
On October 21, 2026, Educators for Excellence–New York and partners held the first-ever NYC Math Revolution Convening, a half-day gathering to help shape the next chapter of math education across New York City Public Schools. Educators, advocates, researchers, and funders came together with Chancellor Kamar Samuels and other NYCPS leaders on the vision for math, share what is working and what needs to shift, and begin building a shared ecosystem roadmap, while naming the Policy, Practice, and Partnerships components needed to grow, sustain, and improve math for every learner in NYC.
Stay tuned for information around a broader Math Revolution gathering happening in spring 2027, and please contact jcunningham@e4e.org with any questions in the meantime.
