[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Staff was told it was happening.  We had PD on it 2 years ago, spent multiple days analyzing pathways, and then it disappeared.

Who told you? Gatehouse?

And what exactly was "happening"? Did they say that algebra 1 (concepts) were no longer going to be taught in middle school?

There were multiple pathways? Any including calculus?

DP.

Wow.  Some of you are desperately trying to deflect.

We, the parents of students in FCPS, all received the same email; it was posted earlier:

“Fairfax County Public Schools is preparing for the implementation of the Virginia Department of Education’s (VDOE) Virginia Mathematics Pathways Initiative (VMPI) and we want families to be aware of proposed changes to Mathematics course offerings. To understand the proposed changes to the course progressions, VDOE is offering . . . “

If Terry McAuliffe had won the governors race, VMPI would have been rammed through.  That is simply a fact.

Another fact is the original VMPI eliminated trig and calc from HS.

There is a particularly nasty troll on DCUM who denies everything about VMPI, and argues it would have been so wonderful.  I suspect that VMPI troll is posting in this thread now too.

And FCPS is still finding other ways to sabotage advance mathematics is our public schools.[/quote]
