We are excited to share that we are implementing a new math curriculum this year! For every unit of the program, Amplify Desmos Math created a resource that provides a summary of key concepts, plus a problem from the lesson practice set you can work through with your student. You’ll find a Caregiver Resource for each unit, in both English and Spanish. We hope you find it helpful in support your child’s math learning.

Please click here to submit your child's BOY Student Forms by Friday, September 12th. Please complete a form for each each child that attends Castle Hills.
