Foundational Mathematics Act.
The Foundational Mathematics Act establishes state requirements to improve math proficiency for North Carolina students from kindergarten through eighth grade. It mandates that schools provide at least 60 minutes of daily, evidence-based math instruction and require students to take math assessments three times per year to identify skill gaps. Students who fall below grade level must receive targeted interventions documented in a Mathematics Success Plan, while the state will also create a new program to support artificial intelligence in math instruction.
