[quote=Anonymous]The issue is some people hear Algebra 1 is offered in 6th grade at some school and they demand it for their progeny, regardless if their school has resources, or even if the child would be appropriately placed. If that doesn’t happen they cry unfairness, even when their child benefited from enrichment, prepping and far more opportunities then most students. There’s also this misunderstanding that acceleration is a golden ticket to good outcomes, which is probably why people get so worked up about it. Not necessarily, there are kids who do well, but just as many are done with math early because they were accelerated when they shouldn’t have been.[/quote]
