[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Main issue is giving parents only two weeks notice.

This looks rushed. Probably going to create issues and FCPS can then point to this as the reason why they did not offer Algebra in the first place in the past. More fodder to woke equity warriors as to why math is racist.[/quote]

I get the distinct impression, from what has been posted here, that Dr. Reid wants this to succeed and is the only one pushing the program. Someone posted that her old district offered Algebra in 6th grade and she wants that here. It is one reason for MS to be grade 6-8, to be able to offer Algebra to 6th graders.

I have no idea why they waited until 2 weeks before school starts to announce this. I would have waited a year and given teachers enough time to get the training and certifications that they need before offering it in the non-Secondary Schools. Sure, offer it to 6th graders who meet the metric at the secondary schools and let them join the 7th grade classes but why toss it on the ES that don’t have the certified teachers?[/quote]
