[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op, even if they do not cruise, the student should not have difficulty in the subject and do it well with minimal effort. if someone had taken 3 years of partial Geometry and been successful or passed an exam with a "5" but has forgotten within a few months maths, then there is not much merit in the grades received.

It is not partial Geometry per Saxon math's own website. Saxon math covers a whole year's worth of geometry and explains the rational for integrating geometry with algebra and pre-calculus.

As for not having difficulty repeating a class that a student has successfully passed that is asinine and educational malpractice. Students should be challenged and not allowed to coast in order to grow.

I find it hard to believe that SWW does not have another AP history or humanities course offered at the same time as their AP World History course for these kids to take. I also find it hard to believe that SWW  does not offer several levels of math courses at the same time as well. This is just DCPS central office being stupid and petty.[/quote]
