[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My understanding for curriculum 2.0 is "no above grade level acceleration in math". At least that's the way our school implements it.

While many people in school adminstration will like you to beleive it, curriculum 2.0 does not preclude above grade level acceleration. It is possible that the school principal choses to implement it that way, to make her/his life easier. The problem with Curriculum 2.0 is, criteria/testing to move ahead for stduents above grade level is not defined. As a result, the assessment for acceleration falls under the discretion of school Principal/teachers and the environment may not be favorable to GT students.

So, there is more reason to attend the GT forum and demand for acceleration to be implemented in every school. Let us not feel secure with the assurance from Carver (that cusrriculum 2.0 does not preclude acceleration) to be dissapointed by school adminstration. Let us advocate for policy implemetation, together![/quote]
