[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] That's not nefarious. If kids in Bethesda start at a high level (for whatever reason: socioeconomic, well-educated parents, etc.) and these kids have the tools to do well - and have historically done well - UNTIL Curriculum 2.0/common core is implemented…then we MUST look at that curriculum as a problem. It is analogous to having an Olympic gold-medal winning sprinter who changes training methods and suddenly places last in the sprint. You would look at his historical ability to perform well and you would question the new, unproven training methodology. That's just logical. Same with looking at the new, untested, hastily-rolled-out curriculum. [/quote] People complain when things get tested. And people complain when things don't get tested. And your analogy would only work if the kids in Bethesda suddenly did worse on the tests than kids in [insert the poorest part of Prince George's County here].[/quote]
