[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone with an advanced math student knows this is all true. The only ones denying don't have strong math students. [/quote]

I completely agree with this sentiment.   [/quote]

+1. My kid's principal recently announced that the school will be piloting E3 math next year for all students. At Q&A time one of the parents asked if 5th graders in Advanced Math would continue to take the 6th grade Math SOL under the new program and if 6th graders in Advanced Math would take the 7th grade Math SOL. The principal hemmed and hawed and did not say yes. Students who don't take the 7th grade Math SOL in 6th grade in our district and pass advanced cannot take Algebra in 7th grade. How is that not detracking math? [/quote]

OK? That’s not VMPI.

DP.  I have come to the conclusion that most people complaining about VMPI do t actually know what it is.  Kind of like people who hate Obamacare but are big fans of the Affordable Care Act.[/quote]

I have difficulty believing that people cannot look at what VDOE is proposing and see how school districts could start to adjust their curriculum based on those proposals. Local school districts made similar moves to decrease advanced math tracking at the same time as the State posted presentations, videos, and proposals that laid out the States reasons for decreasing tracked math strikes me as more then coincidence. But of course the answer is that LCPS, FCPS, APS and other school districts randomly decided that programs they had used for a good period of time were no longer effective, independent of any State proposals, and that it would be a great idea to reduce advanced math options.

Totally organic. Not in any way tied back to what VDOE was posting on its website, nope. No connection there. Nope. [/quote]

APS changed the math track years ago. Before VMPI.
