Again, more lies that have already been debunked in countless earlier threads.

VMPI was focused on blending algebra & geometry concepts. It never proposed to eliminate advanced math or acceleration. Calculus/IB were *always* included as possible paths.

The original vision was very clear about not providing any acceleration/differentiation until 11th grade. It's in the original materials and videos. They walked it back pretty quickly because it was incredibly unpopular. [/quote]
