Their “true intent” is updating the curriculum - blending AGA & adding new content. [b]Detracking came up as a side topic for discussion early on.[/b] They are still early phases and narrowing on scope of the effort. Have you never worked on a large project before? They are still figuring out the scope.

But given the feedback they are very explicitly saying now it’s *not* happening.

No crazy conspiracy here.

This ("detracking came up as side topic") is definitely untrue. It was (and reasonable person would suspect still is!) a core tenet of their effort, as is evidenced by the large body of leftist reform education literature they cited and still cite. Please don't pretend otherwise.

And they haven't taken any feedback as of yet - critical questions asked are routinely ignored, they choose softball questions instead and haven't made the actual feedback they got public.

All we've seen is their reaction to the backlash, and that was likely handed down from the top. That's not a conspiracy theory, that's how small organizations work (keep in mind that it's only a handful of people at VDOE).

So, let's stay alert.
