[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]VA dems want to bring math education standards to a remedial level and to among the lowest in the country, not to mention the world.[/quote] Stop politicizing math. This is a broad reform that is nationally in response to the over-acceleration of math in recent decades. AP calculus is a reasonable option for 12th graders with STEM interests. [/quote] It's likely this will not be possible, despite their listing it as an option. Look at the available courses for 11th grade, the prerequisites are not there. Kids who are capable of taking calculus will not be able to because they were held back in middle school and early high school, and only the top kids learning extra classes outside school will be able to take calculus, or at least be ready for it..
