The Chicago Public School System contains a wide range of high schools, which, even with the same funding sources and operating principles, have different levels of educational resources available to be focused on each educational activity. However, the basic curriculum objectives for each subject are the same across the system. Across all these approaches, a basic core curriculum is required to be met and outcome standards achieved. The Illinois Goal Assessment Program has forced all schools to look at their curriculum to re-evaluate what they are teaching and why. Algebra should include data analysis and statistics. Geometry is moving moving from proof writing to application. In the inner city, neighborhood, and selective schools, real efforts are being made to make mathematics accessible to all students.
