[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP in my experience in Loudoun a lot of the families who are interested in choices in math levels are afraid to go up against the establishment because they are afraid there will be negative repercussions for their children.  That's not how it works.  You need to organize and demand what you want.  Teachers will not fail your children just because you spoke up at a meeting.  White people have done awful things to people from so many other countries, read some history if you're not familiar, so affirmative action should not leave children of any non-white heritage behind.  Educate them on this because they don't know much about history.  That is how this math thing happened, school admin were educated on American history and learned about the need for equity, but white people's destruction and colonization also affected other groups, groups who are now frustrated with the lack of math differentiation, so teach them some more history.

Also, they need to recognize that the White school administration should not get to decide that families of any other  heritage are pushing their children too hard and so take away their choice for advanced math.  Let them know your children are not better off mentally with easier schooling.

Organize and demand a change.  [/quote]

In my experience, a lot of the Asian families are not aware of these changes.[/quote]
