[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]why is it so important to be ahead by so much?[/quote] one of the PP here, i dont think it is important for kumon-type parents to be ahead. i think most parents feel that it is important for their kid to be challenged and make consistent progress in their education. i think the idea here is that progress has to be measured in some format and grades is a simple way to measure the progress (one of PPers mentioned accuracy as a way to measure progress.) i dont think there are many parents that have a goal to have kids that are several years ahead. but there are a ton of parents that have goals of giving their kids a solid consistent multidimensional education and that typically leads to being far ahead of the common core or other standards.
