Are they changing the standards of access to programs or changing the actual standards of the curriculum?  Meaning -- is the curriculum at HGC and compacted math different than it used to be?  If standards of access have changed - I don't see a problem. But if they are watering down curriculum -- that is more of a concern.  [/quote]
They will officially tell you no in terms of the curriculum being watered down but have you been in a compacted math class recently where they accept 60 or more percent of the kids in the school? Teachers are spending a lot of time with remedial groups while the other kids are playing "math" games.[/quote]

that is not a problem in our school --- they did not accept anywhere near 60% of the class.  so perhaps that's a problem you need to address with your school.[/quote]
DP here.. how many were in CM two years ago compared to this year?  In our school, it's doubled. They definitely let in more kids.  Do they still use UCARE assessments?[/quote]
