Math Pathways

MIHS Math Instructional Resource Adoption Committee

The Mercer Island School District is engaged in a process to select and adopt new teaching and learning resources (curriculum) for our Algebra I, Algebra II, and Geometry math courses. Go to the MIHS Math Instructional Resource Adoption Committee page. 

Math Proficiency Exams

If your student is interested in taking a math proficiency exam to demonstrate mastery of content in an effort to "skip" a middle school math course, please complete the nomination form below.

These assessments are open to current 5th-7th grade students. 

Students may not "skip" algebra as it is a high school graduation requirement.  

Testing will occur at Islander Middle School on May 31, 2023.

Current 6th & 7th graders will test from 1:30pm-approx. 3:30-3:45pm. Families must pick up after testing. 
Current 5th graders will test from 2:45pm-approx. 4:45-5pm. Transportation will be provided to IMS, but families must pick up. 

Additional details will be provided via email on May 15, 2023 to those who nominate their student(s). 

MATH PROFICIENCY NOMINATION FORM 
The nomination form will be available from March 1, 2023 until 5pm on Friday, May 12, 2023.
