Students develop a fear of math from the earliest grades, and we have kids who will say, 'I'm not a math person... but even worse than that we have teachers who say 'I'm not a math person,' Schools Chancellor David Banks said.
With 'NYC Solves,' our classrooms will be focused on deeply understanding math concepts, connecting these concepts to each other, and applying these concepts to the real world, Banks told reporters.
Nearly 66% of black students and approximately 64% of Latino students scored below proficiency in math, and Schools Chancellor David Banks finds this wholly unacceptable.
