[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]AAP has been lowering math rigor for years. If you can afford it, consider private schools. For low-income families, explore affordable afterschool math enrichment programs. [/quote] This is sad because the one thing that public schools had over private schools was STEM, but now that STEM has gotten so important the private schools are spending more time and effort to get all the students good at it, and public schools are lowering standards so everybody can meet the standards for STEM (now they can say that all the kids are qualified so you can pick whoever you want, because they're all equally qualified). It's not dead yet because they still allow kids to accelerate but STEM rigor in FCPS is dying. Hopefully parents fight back.[/quote] Yeah STEM is more important than ever. Private schools respond by increasing rigor to prep[are their students for college and public schools reduce rigor to close the achievement gap.[/quote]
