Three states -- Arkansas, Georgia, and New Mexico -- adopted Carnegie Learning curricula for implementation from 2013 through 2018.  Oregon, South Carolina and Utah conducted interim, or bridge, evaluations to address the transition to Common Core standards that will occur prior to the next scheduled state textbook adoption cycles. In addition to the above mentioned new state adoptions, Carnegie Learning curricula are also currently adopted in Alabama, Florida, Idaho, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Tennessee and West Virginia.

Twenty U.S. states conduct curricula evaluations led by their departments of education. Once those materials are approved, they may be purchased by school districts using state education funds. Thirty open-territory states purchase materials at the local school district or individual building levels, independent of a centralized state-level evaluation.
