[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In favor of testing as a requirement in general. But that won't solve the issue at the high school level. DCPS needs a magnet program that starts around 4th-5th grade. Math is the real issue. Most of the middle schools don't have enough of an advanced cohort to offer advanced math. One solution would be to pull the advanced kids out 2-3 days a week for centralized instruction in math. [/quote] Our school has less than 1 handful of kids taking geometry in 8th grade but the school still offers it. Schools can make the choice even if it's just 1-2 students.[/quote] No school would make the choice for 1-2 students. They don't have the resources. [/quote] That's not true. Our DCPS MS is doing it for less than 5 kids right now.[/quote]
