[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And the proposed new curriculum will be presented to the VA BOE by a direct hire (position is vacant) of a Youngkin appointee.

Youngkin owns it.

Certainly hope so!

As originally crafted, the VMPI was a disaster.

The proponents were reluctantly forced to walk back the very most radical proposals (at least, they said they were walking them back).  But even then, it would have drastically curtailed advanced math in VA schools, and watered-down math for all through “blending” concepts.[/quote]

No, it wouldn't.

But don't let facts get in the way of a good wedge issue.  :roll:

Whoa!  Don’t overwhelm us with info or argument.   :roll:   :roll:   :roll: [/quote]

This has been hashed and rehashed countless times. No matter how clearly anyone lays out the facts, people will continue to push GOP lies.

Why would I bother putting any effort responding to a bad-faith post?

You are the one who is completely lying.  The canard of "teach data analytics" was used to support a complete watering down of the curriculum so that (A) all students had to learn algebra 2 and pre-calc in grade 11 in a superficial way, (B) and post-calculus course pathways were completely out of bounds with no acceleration before then.   Anyone who has studies real university-level physical sciences knows that the new pathways were a watering down of the math curriculum.   And a lot of those strategies are still on the table unless the education department dem appointees to the committees, senior bureaucracy, governing boards, and field staff are all changed.    Plus there was a serious focus on identity politics into the physical sciences as a parallel theme in the effort.  None of which is supported by the majority of Virginians.   Gaslighting from agenda-driven democratic activists won't change the truth.
