[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't understand this push. I took Geometry in 9th, Algebra in 10th, Precalc in 11th, and Calculus in 12th. How is math so different now?[/quote] When I was in MS/HS in the early 2000s, the only way to get to Calc as a senior was Algebra I in 8th grade. Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra II, pre-calc, AP calc. I don’t believe we had regular calc. [/quote] This is the regular math track in fcps for any student not behind.[/quote] I believe it. I was above average in junior high and took algebra in the 8th grade. The advanced students took algebra in 7th. If FCPS is overall high performance (or was until fairly recently) it makes sense that the standard is algebra in the 8th grade.😁[/quote]
