[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's only a matter of time before parents sue FCPS for creating numerous barriers that prevent any advanced 6th-grade students from enrolling in Algebra 1.[/quote] Based on what state law? [/quote] A series of them, but can start with discrimination against URM students access to advanced math. [/quote] Again, what state law? It's conveniently all online https://law.lis.virginia.gov/vacode/ What law do you think FCPS 6th grade math placement violates? [/quote] Current laws and policies are discriminatory. If they weren't, one would see many URMs in advanced math, not in gen ed and remedial. [/quote] The AAP equity report showed that URMs were being placed in AAP with significantly lower test scores than white and Asian kids. If anything, FCPS is bending over backward to try to find any URMs who might have the slightest chance of being successful in advanced classes.[/quote]
