[quote=Anonymous][quote][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP here. [quote]Most Asians believe that any child can handle a rigorous curriculum if given the opportunity. It is the American mentality that thinks that the child has to be "gifted and special". If you do not study then Asians believe that even a "hero" becomes a "zero".[/quote] Somehow, MCPS prefers their nontransparent process to determine which few students will have access to half of a challenging curriculum! [/quote] Some students learn faster than others, and need a curriculum that takes that fact into account. [/quote] So, why can't accommodations for the fastest be made within one solid excellent curriculum for all in STEM and the humanities? These ends are not mutually exclusive. have you heard of block scheduling in schools to permit some flexibility for the tail ends. [/quote] One size does not fit all. Different students have different needs. One curriculum does not need to be the same as another to be excellent. [/quote]
