[quote=Anonymous]Hey, I’m an Asian American who was a good student but had a harder time with math. It just wasn’t my forte— I became a journalist, so you can imagine. I was in honors math in public school, but when I went to boarding school, I was placed a full year behind. Many of my fellow students from ny state were in the same boat, because of the state curriculum sequenced math by grade level. In any case, I was grateful to be in the lower class— I needed more help! My kids seem to be sharper in math than both my husband and I, but I doubt they’d make aap if we’re in a district that had it (our kids are in dcps). Maybe they would, but with a lot of pushing and tutoring. And to what end? So they can get some overvalued STEM job? It’s not for everyone. I’m ok with that. Let the geeks have their AAP! [/quote]
