Programs in mathematics in the secondary school have been undergoing an evolution, even called by some a revolution [7].† A number of experimental programs and commission recommendations appropriate for the college-capable group have been developed, such as materials from the School Mathematics Study Group, the University of Illinois Committee on School Mathematics, and the College Entrance Examination Board Recommendations. Much less consideration appears to have been given to the group of students in the secondary school who do not fall into the college-capable group.

Mathematical Curriculum

In the Mathematical Community there is a real interest in the mathematics that our children arc being taught and all of us have a sincere desire to help in planning a sound mathematical curriculum. Many of you, I am sure, are aware of the several groups which unite the talents of professional mathematicians and expert teachers in an effort to make a substantial contribution to elementary and secondary school mathematics. I refer particularly to the School Mathematics Study Group under the direction of Professor E. G. Beglc of Yale University, to the Commission on Mathematics of the College Entrance Examination Board, and to the University of Illinois chool of Mathematics under the direction of Professor Max Beberman. I have been privileged to work with the School Mathematics Swdy Group and I am extremely enthusiastic and optimistic about the series of textbooks which are being tried out this year in 40 different centers. These textbooks range from the 7th to the 12th grades.
