[i]"E3 Alliance research indicates that [b]taking more advanced math courses[/b] in high school highly correlates with students enrolling in a higher education institution, persisting in their studies, and ultimately completing a postsecondary credential"

"we believe the time is now to [b]amplify all students[/b] across the state, scaling these tested and refined practices into state policy during the upcoming Texas 88th Legislative Session."

"Our state-level policy priorities include:
*[b]Opt-Out Policy for high-performing students[/b] enrolling in accelerated math starting in 6th grade.
*[b]Math All Four Years[/b] for high school students."[/i]

E3 Alliance - and FCPS - are trying to get MORE kids in accelerated math.

Compared to the baseline in Texas.  Read it again, they are trying to have kids take math for four years in high school.  Here E3 is reducing opportunities for kids who normally would accelerate more.
They might be taking algebra in 6th or 7th grade, but because of E3 they will be taking in 8th grade.  In Texas algebra in 8th grade with E3 is compared to the typical taking algebra in 9th grade.
Though of course Texas would also have lots of kids who are taking math earlier.   [/quote]

Where does it say they can only take it in 8th? In TX or VA? [/quote]

E3’s goal is homogeneous classes all taking Algebra in 8th.[/quote]

That is very clearly false.
