MAF Mini Grant District Assurance 2023-2024
The
Mathematics Achievement Fund Mini Grant District Assurance document provides funding for purchase of materials needed for modification of instruction (tier one, tier two and/or tier three) in mathematics and pay for extended time or release time for teachers to engage in professional learning of the new mathematics materials purchased. Therefore, a district/school shall use funding to purchase instructional materials for mathematics (including intervention programs and diagnostic assessments) that are
High-Quality Instructional Resources (HQIR), which the KDE defines as being:
- Aligned to the KAS for Mathematics;
- Research-based and/or externally validated;
- Comprehensive to include engaging texts (books, multimedia, etc.), problems and assessments;
- Culturally relevant, free from bias; and
- Accessible for all students.
Annual Evaluation
Per KRS 158.844, the Kentucky Board of Education administrative regulations shall “establish the minimum annual evaluation process for each grant recipient.” High-Quality Instructional Resources are not just for teachers; they are critical for student success. Students deserve access to standards-aligned instructional resources and grade-level assignments to help them reach the intended learning outcomes within the KAS. Research demonstrates a positive link between high-quality professional learning (HQPL), teaching practices and student outcomes. Evaluating the initial effectiveness of the newly purchased mathematics program will include the following:
- Completed Mathematics Instructional Resources Alignment Rubric to ensure materials needed for modification of instruction (tier one, tier two and/or tier three) align to the KAS for Mathematics (see Model Curriculum Framework Phase 3 for guidance).
- Submitted professional learning plan for KDE approval that aligns to the characteristics of HQPL on the HQIR and demonstrates how and when teachers will be trained on the new mathematics materials purchased (see Model Curriculum Framework Phase 4 for guidance).
- Description and number of hours of professional learning on the selected HQIR implemented in the school within a school year.
Any violation of the mentioned criteria could result in partial or complete loss of funding for the Mathematics Achievement Fund.
