Apr 25, 2020 at 3:47 comment added Ross Day I can't speak till whether it was taught "as planned" in the Palo Alto (Calif.) Unified School District, but as one of the guinea pigs I can attest it was full on in my elementary school.

Nov 10, 2015 at 20:17 comment added Jasper What does SMSG stand for?
Nov 9, 2015 at 19:34 comment added mweiss This is discussed, somewhat, at math.rochester.edu/people/faculty/rarm/smsg.html. Key quote: "Just the other day I heard an aging academic say that Marxism hasn't failed, because it hasn't been tried -- not an original trope, for we have heard the same of Christianity for ages. Had SMSG really been tried? The mass of American teachers -- and children -- were not in the end exposed to, let alone taught, what the SMSG mathematicians prescribed. But to plead thus is only to evade responsibility."
Nov 9, 2015 at 19:16 comment added Dave L Renfro Interestingly, just a few moments ago I posted an answer in MathStackexchange that makes reference to one of the SMSG books -- Reference books for learning matrices from the beginning?. I don't know enough concerning what you asked to post an answer here, but in case you haven't seen it yet, some related issues are discussed at: Was there an SMSG (New Math) “Algebra 2” text?

Added a tag (the question is about the history of math education) and added the question in the body.
