[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seem like Terry McAuliffe is quiet about these proposed changes.I take his silence as suppressing gifted kids and high achievers. [/quote]

You should read up on latest so you don’t sound like a low-info rube.

They are proposing to mix up the course content to blend it together, not removing acceleration or advanced classes. [/quote]

So you’re telling me the elementary and middle school advanced academic and honors classes will  still be around? Advanced academics for gifted kids starts in 3rd  where they skip a grade  level math. Since you read it all, tell me if that’s true. I don’t see any acceleration until possibly 6th grade. [/quote]

They have walked it back and said districts are free to do acceleration and honors classes.  Their videos say otherwise, and they want to eliminate acceleration, they are just going to do it a little more stealthily, and wait until after the election to walkback their walkback.[/quote]
