If you can logically see a 'path' to calc that doesn't involve summer school or compressing the HS curriculum in what VMPI has presented thus far, then by all means, [b]tell us what we're missing here.[/b]

From a link upthread(equationsnow), not sure if this is explicitly reference by VMPI, 
Design junior and senior year BRANCH
courses, including an AP mathematics course
that seniors can take without accelerating
through the curriculum, as well as junior and
senior year STEM math courses that prepare
students for calculus in high school or college.

More importantly to present discussion-
Design ninth and 10th grade courses that
prioritize content important for BRANCH
pathways, while shifting more technical STEMapplicable content into junior and senior year
STEM courses.
In other words algebra 2 is 11th grade.[/quote]

After algebra 2 you still need a year of precalc and trig before calc. If you take Algebra 2 in 11th, when are you supposed to take the precalc/trig such that you still take a year of calc in HS?[/quote]
