Like the FCPS Superintendent, SB, and Gatehouse, there is widespread hatred toward Asians on DCUM.

More fake news.

I don't know if it's hatred so much as annoyance and a bit of bitterness.

Asians and other successful minorities are inconvenient to the narrative that white supremacy is so powerful in this country that non-whites don't stand a chance as a group. When a group of mostly immigrants and their children outperform whites, the argument starts to fray. White people are annoyed that these asians are able to outperform their little Larlo and Larla? THEY MUST BE CHEATING!!!

Standardized exams (which have been used since at least WWII) are susceptible to a special form of cheating that only asians engage in. These crafty asians send their kids to academic enrichment classes like kumon, AOPS and RSM from the age of 7 or 8 and continue to cheat for the rest of their educational years by studying more than everybody else.

No one said that studying is cheating. More fake news from RWNJs trying to spin up division.

The more you try to bulldoze yourself and shut people up, the more you prove the point that there is a movement against math.

You are a liar trying to spin up a manufactured political issue. GTFO.

I say this with a lot of compassion: you need serious help. Your emotional state is obviously on the edge.

I have zero patience for people trying to F with our schools, particular RWNJs who are trying to score political points.

The only nut job here is you. If you don’t want the schools messed with work on it constructively.

You obviously like them to not improve. It must benefit you in some way.

More fake news.

The only thing I don't want are POS political operatives spinning up wedge issues with lies and fake issues. We get it. Rs are going to lose big time in November. These pathetic threads aren't going to help.

He's not "spinning up" wedge issues. These issues are already there, the left ignores them at their peril.
Asians moved 10 points to the right. 30% voted for trump in 2020 and 40% did so in 2024.
Listed high on the reasons for the shift were:
The economy
Public Safety
Affirmative Action (or more precisely the reaction to the opposition to AA labelling asians as ‘privileged,’ ‘selfish,’ ‘cheaters,’ ‘overrepresented,’ ‘white adjacent,’ and ‘resource hoarders’ )


The economic and safety issues are probably the most important because really who gives a fck what some asians in san francisco and farifax think.

I am the op.

You obviously meant it sarcastically when you said that studying is cheating.

You need to realize though, that that studying distorts the instructional level of the class and it impacts the learning of the students who do not take external classes.

The teacher will think (in good or bad faith) that there are plenty of students keeping up with his methods and style and not reassess himself.

Longfellow is a prime example where this happened. There was a particular teacher who took pride that he was running Algebra I and II like college classes and the truly gifted were keeping up with him. He tortured many kids, and many that qualified for Algebra I HNrs in 7th dropped out or repeated it. Those kids had qualified through an established standard, and no math prodigy is taking Algebra I HNrs in 7th.

This primarily happened because there is no path to test out of Math classes in fcps.

It’s not the fault of the families that want their kids ahead in math and take extracurricular classes, but of a system that forcefully tries to stop them from advancing. It could be that they go to the external classes prior to taking the class in school so they can ensure to always get As and they wouldn’t go to test out of the classes that they learned already. That is a not well established form of cheating.

To illustrate to you why that is a form of cheating consider why you can’t get the same university classes or major more than once, and why if you get a D or below or a W in college it stays on your transcript.

Unfortunately there is lots of hate and obstacles regarding advancement in Math.

You can accelerate, they just discourage it a LOT.

Half these kids would be taking calculus as freshmen if they let them test out of algebra and geometry before they hit middle school

[Anonymous]

Unfortunately, some demographics are literally not capable of performing as well as some other demographics academically, and Math is the leading signal in this disparity.

A certain group of people just can’t accept this reality and conjure up all kinds of stories about acceleration, tiger moms, and cheating.

Fake news.

Kids can easily accelerate in math by multiple years.

It’s just more difficult to accelerate by 4+ years.

And yet it was people like you that Fukd with TJ admissions.

Less than 1% of kids from the class of 2024 came from economically-disadvantaged. Out of a community with 36% eligible for FRM.

The old admissions process wasn’t working.

The new admissions process isn’t perfect but it’s a step in the right direction.

DP, no manufacturing necessary. The issue is already out there.
People used the "studying is cheating" argument to replace the TJ test and then eventually eliminate it.
They call it prepping, as if these kids are studying for a single test starting in 2nd grade.

You are either a racist or an accomplice.

No one said that “studying is cheating”.

Stop lying.

This. Often it is the humanities and arts majors who are challenged by math that then can’t wrap their heads around math being fun.

This right here is why I’m personally so bothered by outside math enrichment. I have math-inclined kids, who love math, and excel on their own without any outside enrichment. When a large percentage of the class already knows the content (because they’re paying to learn it elsewhere), the teachers stop teaching under the assumption that they don’t need to. So what we’ve seen is that the enriched students impact not only the educational instruction (not) happening in the classroom, but they’re also bored and oftentimes play video games in class and disrupt any learning that should be happening. I’ve heard it from multiple teachers, from my kids, and from their peers. This has been going on since 5th grade and has only gotten worse in middle school.

I truly don’t care if any parent chooses to enrich their kids and push them multiple years ahead, but I do care when it impacts the learning that should be happening in the classroom. This could be solved w/ a test-out option, and I know many teachers support it, but FCPS won’t do it. I suspect because then they’ll be forced to meet the students at the academic level their parents paid for, and thus provide college-level math from early in HS to so many students. That gets expensive.

Dying is easy, Math is hard.

So when you fakk with TJ admissions to achieve racial diversity, it's a step on the right direction but when people point out how there is a movement to undermine math, they are RWNJs that are fakking with education?

You can achieve economic diversity by selecting for poor kids. I think this is a mistake because you end up with a lot of less qualified poor kids but you are legally allowed to select for poor kids without otherwise changing the admissions process. What you aren't allowed to do is select for race and THAT is why they overhauled the admissions process.

You mean on Fairfax or generally?

Because generally, we have heard that math is racist and we have seen the nonsense with the math curriculum coming out of California.

Dining down math might make your kids feel smart but it makes the country down and we're no longer competing with each other, we are competing with China and India.

The more you try to bulldoze yourself and shut people up, the more you prove the point that there is a movement against math.

You are a liar trying to spin up a manufactured political issue. GTFO.

I say this with a lot of compassion: you need serious help. Your emotional state is obviously on the edge.

I have zero patience for people trying to F with our schools, particular RWNJs who are trying to score political points.

The only nut job here is you. If you don’t want the schools messed with work on it constructively.

You obviously like them to not improve. It must benefit you in some way.

More fake news.

The only thing I don't want are POS political operatives spinning up wedge issues with lies and fake issues. We get it. Rs are going to lose big time in November. These pathetic threads aren't going to help.

He's not "spinning up" wedge issues. These issues are already there, the left ignores them at their peril.
Asians moved 10 points to the right. 30% voted for trump in 2020 and 40% did so in 2024.
Listed high on the reasons for the shift were:
The economy
Public Safety
Affirmative Action (or more precisely the reaction to the opposition to AA labelling asians as ‘privileged,’ ‘selfish,’ ‘cheaters,’ ‘overrepresented,’ ‘white adjacent,’ and ‘resource hoarders’ )


The economic and safety issues are probably the most important because really who gives a fck what some asians in san francisco and farifax think.

“There is a movement against math” is pure propaganda BS.

You mean on Fairfax or generally?

Because generally, we have heard that math is racist and we have seen the nonsense with the math curriculum coming out of California.

Dining down math might make your kids feel smart but it makes the country down and we're no longer competing with each other, we are competing with China and India.

FCPS is trying to get MORE kids to accelerate in math. As is the E3 alliance in Texas.

Personally, I support multiple levels of acceleration but have high bars of entry.
