[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Other than Montgomery County which spends considerably more per child than FCPS and doesn't teach advanced math in general ed, what other school systems are teaching advanced instruction better than FCPS?[/quote]

What do you mean Montgomery County doesn't teach advanced math in General Ed?  Any student has the option of starting advanced math at the Compacted 4/5 level without regard to entry into HGC (highly gifted center).[/quote]

How is this better than Fairfax? [b]FCPS allows for all children to access basic grade level standards 1 grade above starting in kindergarten[/b]. They also teach basic and extended math standards for the grade above starting in 3rd for AAP. The general ed program is already at the level of MCPS, but starts 4 years earlier.[/quote]

They do?  I didn't know that.[/quote]

Our non center elementary school offers the exact same accelerated math as the center school starting in third grade. Abour 25% of the kids in my child's grade are taking the accelerated math. If they pass the Iowa and SOLs they will also be able to take algebra in 7th just like the center kids. Fcps.[/quote]
