[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hate to break it to y'all. https://www2.ed.gov/datastory/stem/algebra/index.html In America, only 24% of public school students take algebra in 8th grade. There is also research that suggests that every student is not actually ready for Algebra even in 8th grade (and before). https://www.rand.org/content/dam/rand/pubs/working_papers/WR1200/WR1209/RAND_WR1209.pdf https://www.nctm.org/News-and-Calendar/Messages-from-the-President/Archive/Linda-M_-Gojak/Algebra_-Not-_If_-but-_When_/ https://hechingerreport.org/kids-are-failing-algebra-the-solution-slow-down/ [/quote] In DCPS, way too many 8th graders are in algebra. You can see middle school parcc data where most of the 8th graders in algebra are not scoring proficient, and the only kids left in 8th grade math are really behind, and it's clear they're putting everyone who isn't multiple years behind in algebra.
