[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why can’t you bring the bottom up without limiting options for the top? I think that’s the root of the problem. No one (or most normal people) don’t mind bringing the bottom up. It’s when you limit the options at the top that people get upset. [/quote]

You are speculating that there will be “limited options”.

It's not speculation.  One track of heterogenous classes up through 10th grade.  That's the very definition of limited options, and guaranteed it will be focused on bringing up the bottom.  [/quote]

[i]  School divisions will also be able to offer advanced sections and acceleration through the courses. [/i][/quote]

What is the difference between that & what we have now?[/quote]

Tough to say, except that there will no longer be pre-algebra through algebra II as separate courses? I am assuming "applications of advanced algebra" is not Algebra II.[/quote]

It might be an applied algebra ii.  I guess this because there is a trigonometric applications class, but but no separate trigonometry.[/quote]
