ST. TAMMANY PARISH, La. – At least one school board is affirming math problems should involve the fewest steps necessary.

That’s why Louisiana’s St. Tammany Parish school board voted to dump what’s frequently referred to as “Common Core math.”

WDSU reports:

“We’re going to phase out the Eureka Math from the math curriculum by the end of this school year,” said School Board President Beth Heintz.

While a number of educators and others urged the board to give Eureka Math more time to work, a large and vocal contingent of parents just wanted it gone.

Over recent months concerned parents have echoed similar sentiments.

Said one parent, “I have a child who is very discouraged, who has always been a good student in math and between my husband and I we have three college degrees, we have to Google to figure out what we’re supposed to help our child with.”

“We have listened to our parents,” said Heintz. “We realize that they do not care for the Eureka Math curriculum. I know that many of our teachers have listened to that. I’m sure they will keep that in their minds when choosing the curriculum they want to use in their classrooms.”

The process to remove the Common Core style of math is a bit complicated, as the school district needs to replace textbooks and worksheets.

“We look at text books that are available to us. We see if they are aligned to our curriculum,” Heintz said, according to the news station.

“We get parental input. We get teacher input, and thoroughly review the textbooks before they are chosen.”

Proponents of Common Core math say the additional steps lead students to a “deeper knowledge” of math.

Oftentimes, it’s led to parents and students being nothing but frustrated with the time-consuming extra work.
