[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They just shared that it will be unveiled in 2023-2024.  Next stage by 2024-2025 and fully implemented in 2025-2026 so it will slowly roll out. 
[/quote] Therefore current 6th graders will be well into their math track and this should not factor in. I'd bee more concerned with rising 3rd graders possibly 4th graders.[/quote]
In Loudoun and other counties, rising 4th graders and 5th graders are effected, as they are avoiding acceleration and putting them on this new pathway.
They said it was too stressful to test 5th graders.[/quote]

What is worrisome is that after political and parental pressure, VDOE walked back on their idea of no acceleration, then push acceleration to the districts because they don’t want to deal with it or a to cover up their mistake. This means if the district doesn’t commit to acceleration or advanced tracking it will not happen. Districts will say they don’t have the resources or time to create those courses. We need to know what the districts will do. I need to know before June election. [/quote]

Basically VDOE is leaving it where it stands I thought. If FCPS or others want to combine half a year ahead to accelerate then that is on them - as it is now. And they cannot say VDOE is blocking them from allowing Honors or for 7th graders to take 8th grade math for instance. [/quote]
