[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is awful. What a terrible requirement. Math is important but this is going to come at the expense of everything else.[/quote] +1000 Is there any way to combat this? Why is it ok for the state to demand that math shoulders out everything else? I liked math as a student, but I would have resented the hell out of it if it meant that I couldn’t have any electives. As an adult, I use everyday math but certainly not anything higher than that.[/quote] I dunno if MSDE will be willing to revisit it. I searched and didn't see any evidence of pushback on this from school districts, but I can't find the actual public comment document. This was changed at the same time as all those other big math changes, though, so maybe they were distracted by other aspects of the policy? Or maybe the school districts just don't care about the impact this will have on foreign language learning or on band/arts/other electives?[/quote]
