[quote=Anonymous]NP. Trolls are out of control on this thread. The fact is, prior to this year, APS did a lot of gate keeping to make it so few kids “qualified” for pre-algebra in 6th grade. They frequently changed (& didn’t publicize in advance) the test score cut-offs, implied that teacher input was considered when it was really all decided by the APS math office, did not advertise that parents could override their recommendations, and were anything but transparent about exactly how the placements were made. Because of the new (bipartisan) law, a certain percentage of kids are REQUIRED to be offered advanced math. And this number of kids is much higher than the previous number being placed in advanced math. This is a good thing. [/quote]
