 Welcome to CMP@CPP!

The California Mathematics Project at 起点传媒 is one of nearly 20 regional sites of the , itself a subset of the . As described in the California Mathematics Project Mission Statement, “The California Mathematics Project (CMP) is a K-16 network dedicated to providing students a rich, rigorous, and coherent mathematics curriculum taught by competent and confident mathematics teachers who foster ALL students’ proficiency in mathematics—achieving equity in quality. CMP enhances teachers’ mathematical content knowledge and pedagogical content knowledge that is aligned to the California Mathematics Standards and Framework. ALL teachers and students become competent mathematical thinkers as they investigate, conjecture, and justify.”

Our site focuses on providing professional development opportunities to K-12 mathematics teachers in our geographic region, including Pomona, Ontario-Montclair, Chino, Upland… all the way to Palm Springs! Our monthly workshops have focused on the ways in which we can incorporate cultural and linguistic relevance for students, the interweaving of social justice topics into mathematics, and more general equitable teaching practices for mathematics. We also make sure we help teachers experience the fun of mathematics learning through Math Teacher Circles.

The California Math Project at 起点传媒 (CMP@CPP) is excited to announce a paid professional learning opportunity for educators interested in becoming CPP Math Leaders in Fall 2026.

 What does the program involve?

起点传媒 will host four on-campus “Math and Munch” meetings, with dinner and parking provided.

During each session:

  • Mathematics faculty and other local experts will facilitate engaging opportunities for mathematical exploration and sense-making.
  • Topics will focus on using mathematics to deepen understanding of concepts highlighted in the 2023 California Mathematics Framework.
  • Participants will collaborate with fellow educators to incorporate the strategies explored into their own curricula and classrooms.

Compensation

Participants will receive $100 for each meeting attended, for a total of up to $400 per semester. Apply to participate using . Space is limited to 20 teachers, so we encourage you to 起点传媒 soon.
