Oregon is part of a growing national movement …

In 2022, Oregon became

1 of 25 states who have committed to making math pathways reforms (example: Launch Years Initiative).

These states are committed to creating modern and equitable math pathways.

In Oregon, public colleges and universities are partnering with ODE in this work.
