Whether you're just beginning to explore options or narrowing down final contenders, this resource works to bring greater clarity, transparency, and confidence to your math adoption decision-making process.

Dive into the Between the Greens Reports!
These reports provide in-depth comparative reviews of strongly rated California math curricula to support informed final adoption decisions. They were developed to support districts in choosing between a few similar, highly rated programs, or, in other words, to help you decide between green-rated options.

The reports:
- Feature criteria-based strengths and considerations (e.g., accessibility, assessment tools, usability, and task and teacher supports).
- Provide evidence-rich summaries detailing how each curriculum meets district-defined priorities.

Looking Ahead: California’s ELA/ELD Literacy Adoption

This June, the California Department of Education will be posting its final literacy professional development (PD) program recommendations online to support LEAs with PD programs for teaching literacy in TK-5 as they look ahead to instructional materials adoptions next year. Then, per the Schedule of Significant Events, the Instructional Quality Commission (IQC) will make ELA/ELD instructional material program recommendations in September 2026, followed by final approval by the State Board of Education in November. Are you planning to adopt new ELA instructional materials next school year? We’d love to hear about your needs as we plan out our offerings!

Meet the Math List Hub!
The hub supports district and school administrators who are early in the adoption process by providing filtering and comparison tools for approved California math programs, using transparent, HQIM-aligned information.

With the Math List Hub, you can:
- Filter by categories such as grade band(s), digital/print format, LMS integration capability, and language availability to narrow your list of potential programs to the features most essential to your adoption needs.
- Utilize the additional comparative tool for side-by-side review of curriculum options.

With California’s 2023 Mathematics Framework and the first statewide math adoption list in more than a decade, districts have a timely opportunity to strengthen curriculum decisions and better align instruction with the state’s vision for student learning. This report examines what the new framework and 2025 adoption list mean for district leaders, why strong local selection and implementation processes matter, and how to ensure new materials lead to meaningful classroom outcomes.
