Accessible on the innovative Savvas Realize learning management system, the enVision South Carolina math series and Experience Math offer the flexibility of digital, print, and blended instruction and provide math teachers with the tools they need to easily personalize learning for all students.

The enVision South Carolina K-12 math series provides evidence-based, standards-aligned content, combined with personalized adaptive learning and practice, to support all students in developing deep conceptual math understanding, procedural skills, and fluency, with relevant application opportunities to become college and career ready. The award-winning enVision series offers continuity from year-to-year with vertical alignment from kindergarten through grade 12.

The new enVision programs for South Carolina feature expanded digital resources and more high-interest, student-centered activities that engage learners in real-world, meaningful math.

The program features an easy-to-use, three-part instructional design that gives students varied experiences to solve problems and develop mathematical thinking skills. To increase student engagement, Experience Math leverages problem-based activities and rich tasks to drive learning in each standards-aligned lesson.

The program focuses on improving student-centered learning with intentional teaching that is aligned with clear learning goals and strategic instructional decisions. Experience Math provides teachers quick access to professional learning videos, curated instructional support, and lesson presentations, making it easy to plan lessons and develop instruction.

Both enVision South Carolina and Experience Math offer easily accessible family engagement resources to support student learning at home. Brainingcamp digital manipulatives are embedded within the K-8 programs to give students access to interactive modeling tools to improve conceptual understanding.

In South Carolina’s HQIM appraisals of the programs, the enVision South Carolina series and Experience Math all received high or perfect scores — at each grade level — on all three gateways (or criteria), which include: Alignment to the South Carolina College- and Career-Ready Mathematics Standards and Coherence; Student Understanding; and Student and Teacher Supports.

“By delivering high-quality instructional materials for South Carolina,” Forsa said, “Savvas is helping the state’s educators promote student exploration of math, developing their deep mathematical understanding while preparing them for the future.”

Greenzie releases 2025 Annual Safety Report, documenting multi-year safety performance at commercial scale

Published

2 hours ago

April 23, 2026

The data shows zero lost-time injuries, zero OSHA medical attentions and zero human near-misses across real-world operation

ATLANTA, April 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Greenzie, the technology platform powering commercial autonomy across multiple OEMs, today shared multi-year safety data from real-world commercial operation, documenting more than 150,000 autonomous miles with zero lost-time injuries, zero OSHA medical attentions and zero human near-misses. The data is published in Greenzie’s 2025 Annual Safety Report, available at greenzie.com/safety.

The report is based on extensive operational data spanning more than 5.4 billion square feet of turf mowed, 68,000+ hours of autonomous mowing and more than 50,000 operator days, the equivalent of 265 mowing seasons.

“Greenzie is helping define safety in autonomous landscape operations, and transparency is a critical part of that,” said Steve Bush, chief operating officer of Greenzie. “These results show that commercial autonomy is operating safely at meaningful scale in the field. Transparency matters because as this category matures, real-world data helps build confidence in what responsible deployment looks like.”

The report’s findings are particularly significant in the context of the U.S. landscaping industry, which employs roughly 1.3 million workers and experiences a higher-than-average rate of workplace accidents compared to other fields. Greenzie’s multi-year operating data shows that autonomy is not theoretical; it is already being deployed consistently and performing safely at scale.

“Greenzie Powered Autonomy™ has been validated through years of sustained use in the field,” Bush said. “That level of real-world performance reinforces both the reliability of our platform and the broader readiness of commercial autonomy.”

Greenzie attributes this performance to a disciplined safety approach that includes robust perception, tested operating standards and continuous validation in real-world commercial environments.

About Greenzie

Founded in 2018, Greenzie is the technology platform powering commercial autonomy. Created to solve the landscape industry’s labor and productivity challenges, Greenzie works with leading equipment manufacturers to deliver the software, navigation and safety systems that enable mowing and other outdoor power equipment to operate autonomously in real-world commercial environments. Today, Greenzie’s platform is running on hundreds of machines in active use, helping manufacturers bring autonomy to market and allowing operators to get more done with limited labor—moving autonomy from early experimentation to everyday operations.
