New NYC Mandated HS Math Curriculum Is Flawed

Screenshot from Illustrative Math Algebra I lesson

I was quoted in a Chalkbeat article about the new mandated math curriculum in NYC Public Schools.

In the article, I pointed out that the new curriculum, which according to administrators must be followed exactly, has many good problems but is unrealistic and flawed. I also noted that if the curriculum is so good, why are some schools being exempted from following it?
