The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) has issued two extensive publications — one for elementary educators and the other for middle school educators — on how to help all students view themselves as "capable learners and doers" of math. The latest reports are follow-ons to one issued in 2018 covering high school math and are meant to serve as a callout to school and district leaders, teachers and others to "confront inequitable policies and practices" in math education, many of which have become especially evident since the onset of COVID-19.

As president and past president of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM), we are committed to a position of social justice that challenges the roles of power, privilege, and oppression. We extend our heartfelt sympathies to the loved ones of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery. As a mathematics education community, we must not tolerate acts of racism, hate, bias, or violence.
