The Goals of the Pathway to Mathematics Program

  1. PTM will prepare a total of up to 25 mathematics teachers (over the five-year period) who will be certified to teach mathematics at the secondary level.
  2. PTM seeks to create a steady stream of future alternative master’s degree mathematics education majors, which in turn will increase the number of mathematics teachers available to teach in local school systems.
  3. PTM will enhance middle and high school student achievement by providing certified mathematics teachers in high needs schools that currently lack certified math teachers.
  4. PTM will create a replicable model to provide ongoing mentoring and professional development for novice mathematics teachers that will increase the likelihood that they will be retained and become career teachers.
