[quote=Anonymous]Thanks for sharing. MCPS continuing to head for the gutter. Local MS has had high performance in Science MCAP. A teacher said that MCPS sent officials to understand what the school was doing. Apparently, local MS decided not to use the Central Office-approved curriculum 'cuz they realized how bad it was. So they stuck with their own, based on decades of experience. Teacher has since already retired. Sad to eliminate MS Humanities magnets. Just about the only MS place where some rigorous writing is still required. Math: Eureka was cutting edge at the time. Other than being super wordy sometimes, it was actually ok as a curriculum for the masses. But what I observed from kiddos experiences was that teachers didn't follow the curriculum page-by-page (or in other words "with fidelity"). So if you're skipping pages/lessons or going in a different order, then you miss the whole point of the structure that was built into Eureka. That's a disappointment. [/quote]
