This is exactly the kind of woke nonsense that got Superintendent Karen Garza pushed out. Her reports were so far left, even liberals considered them extreme.

I graduated HS in a purple area of a red state in the early 2000s and this was our exact math progression. Average students did pre-calc/trig as HS seniors and then college calculus as freshmen if their majors required it. Advanced students did Algebra 1 in 8th and AP Calc as seniors. There was no formal path more accelerated than that, but we always had a few (less than 10) students who either came from private or did a bunch of outside enrichment so they could do AP Calc as juniors, and then additional college level math at the local college as seniors.

Point is, this has been THE math progression for a few generations. Look at the graduation requirements, HS Calc is not on there. Now there is a big push in education/a trend to get all kids into Calculus as HS seniors, but it’s still considered acceleration. [/quote]
