Meet Mrs. Keith I have been fortunate to be a member of the state team of educators who worked on the new Algebra 1 and Geometry curriculum as well as facilitated GA Department of Education summer math institutes for teachers. This experience gave me a unique understanding of what to teach and how to teach it to ensure our students master the new math courses.
