[quote=Anonymous]It is a response to the roll out of curriculum 2.0 for this year's 3rd graders (meaning, next year's 4th graders). This year, 3rd graders weren't allowed any acceleration and MCPS finally realized that this wasn't going to work. Next year, they will have 4/5 in order to address that problem (so kids won't be artificially slowed down next year). I agree with the pp's question about why MCPS would suddenly require parental permission for acceleration of this kind. I wonder what that is really about. There just isn't a precedent for that type of parental approval. Yes, parents have always been able to speak with the school and change placements when appropriate, but never before to my knowledge has there been a front-end parental approval required. The skeptic in me wonders what this is about.[/quote]
