[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When my kids were in ES and then Pyle MS nearly everyone did compacted math. There were something like 3-4 classes for compacted and 1 for "regular". MCPS push it because parents have pushed it. I don't know if is easing off? But you can basically decide yourself and make it known what you want. I even tried to get my DS OUT of compacted because I felt it was going to fast and concepts were not sticking but they dissuaded me. [/quote] The criteria for compacted math are now stricter than they were even in recent years. More schools have too few kids identified to have even one class, so they have to have kids receive it virtually. This is a good thing--they are trying to identify the kids who will be successful. Previoulsy, too many kids who did compacted were not proficient in algebra when they took it.[/quote]
