Mathematics and Physics Partnership
University of Arkansas, Fayetteville
University of Arkansas - Fort Smith
The mission of the College Ready in Mathematics and Physics Partnership is to enhance mathematics and physics learning for all students in its partner districts and teacher-preparation programs in partner institutions, closing achievement gaps, and preparing students for success in mathematics, science, and teaching careers. This will be achieved by building learning communities of 7-12 teachers and college faculty that foster and nurture smooth access to, productive disposition toward, and preparation for success in college.

Mission Statement:
“Our youth should not be shackled by limiting adult perceptions of their potential, but rather adults should ensure that our youth own the mathematical and scientific knowledge, dispositions and skills that will allow them to explore the post-secondary options of their choosing, in the near and long-term. It's about preparation, opportunity, and options for all.”
