From the teachers who created Skew The Script, now introducing…

Teacher workshops on making math relevant.

Does college pay off? Does my vote matter? How much do influencers make? Who’s the best basketball player of all time? Join a community of math teachers working to infuse compelling topics like these into their classrooms. In our workshops, we learn about how to use socially relevant math to…

  • Drive higher academic results, especially for students from traditionally underserved backgrounds (see our results here).

  • Engage students in critical thinking and quantitative reasoning, while also hitting the math standards you’re expected to teach.

  • Develop skills in leading nuanced and nonpartisan discussions on real issues.

In 2023:

  • 98% of participants said they’d recommend our workshops to a colleague.

  • Participants rated our workshops 4.75 / 5 stars.

  • “Skew The Script answers my students’ most-asked question of 'when are we ever going to use this?' The lessons make coming to class FUN, for students and myself! Students also gain a deeper understanding by using real-world data to make sense of the math."

    Monique Boston, Algebra I/II teacher, Poly Prep Country Day School

  • “Sure, the lessons helped me understand math better. But they also made me realize that I can use math and data to dig deep into real issues – stuff I actually care about. That’s when I decided to go to college and to major in data science.”

    Julius Cervantes, former San Antonio ISD student and current first-generation college student at UTSA

  • "I have been using Skew The Script for a while, and I just want to say that it is hands down the best educational resource I have used as a math teacher in 20 years of teaching. You are my hero!!"

    Tiffany Thiri, math teacher, Northfield Mount Hermon

  • "The integration of relevant issues into the lessons made each topic more compelling for me, which really helped me internalize the content (I earned a 5 on the AP Exam). Now, my goal is to combat health inequities through applying data science to healthcare."

    Jason Chen, former Saline HS student, currently at Northwestern studying data science and neuroscience

  • "The materials and resources helped teachers in our department rethink math instruction. It has also helped us work with teachers from other departments in shaping the socially and culturally relevant discussions that emerge from the math."

    Alex Kmicikewycz, Assistant Principal , Chicago Public Schools

  • “I was making connections between my statistics lessons and what we were learning in civics class the period before. It was fun, engaging, and an experience that I hope more students get to have. "

    Aden Gonzales, former Philadelphia School District student and current student at Yale
