[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unfortunately, those accommodations are prohibited under 2.0. That is the whole point. If she had been the exact same student a couple of years ago (i.e., pre-2.0), that type of accommodation would be easy to accomplish. Now, the exact same student is prohibited from getting the accommodation. THAT is keeping kids down under this new curriculum.[/quote] Yes, these accommodations are now banished at our MCPS elementary. Probably 7-10 kids a year were taking 3 years above grade level math. Now they can't. Holding the top down is a convenient way to cause any top/bottom gaps to get smaller. It's good that the Algebra in 7th grade pathway has been reinstated, but it's not enough.
