[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Geez, setting kids up to fail. "We know you didn't meet the bare minimum to be successful in algebra 1, but I'll put you in the class anyway because your parents are obnoxious and if I tell them no it will make my job harder in the short term." Poor kids. It's going to be a long slog of math to high school graduation.[/quote] Their parents will get them tutors so they can keep up and they will have to do the same for pretty much every math class after. I don’t have a problem with offering A1H to 6th graders who are ready but it should be a small group of kids with very specific cut offs and no exceptions made. The number of kids they are placing in the class is massive, which is kind of crazy. They are jumping from 30 a year to 500 this year. [/quote]
