Fairfax is implementing it.

E3 will severely water-down math for accelerated learners.

FFX is not just blue, it has become radicalized. For your child’s sake, move someplace better.

Can you please explain more please? I’m not sure I really understand what it means

Hi. I have not participated in this thread but it explains parts of the problem with E3:

If you ask FCPS (and I did), they are fairly cagey about E3. In one breath they say they want to keep advanced math, give all kids "access to rigor" and raise the standards for all kids, and use ability clustering rather than separate classes. E3 sounds good on paper, I guess, but a disaster in the actual classroom.

Agree. Fairfax won’t release details on E3 - other than referring you to the same, “feel good” general video Google leads to.

They are keeping the details secret.

Where did they move? Do you know the name of their school district?
We’re thinking Warrenton or maybe upper Loudoun (Purcellville, Lovettsville). Most of the people on this forum think that’s basically the edge of the world…My kid is definitely smart and above average, but I guess I can do extra school at home with him? While I want him to go to AAP, the idea of staying here 10+ years or probably forever at that point…😵‍💫

Those are good places as long as you are comfortable around the rednex.
