[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child is in the class (not with a P)  and ended up with an A.  DC’s math saavy best friend is in the class with a P. Best friend has more points off for comparable mistakes on tests and taught themselves the material. Neither does supplemental math. [/quote]

OP, I think if your kid is in one of the P classes, you shouldn't fret about their math skills.  It is more about the lack of teaching in those two classes than the child's ability to learn math. I have a kid in the non-P class and most of my kid's friends are in one of the two P classes and they all complain that they're having to learn the topics on Khan or YT.  Concepts that were never taught in those classes are tested. It's pretty appalling but more parents need to complain before something can be done.  But also one of the P's is the chair of the Math Department so it's difficult.  Incidentally, this particular P (who is worse than the other P) was under Mr. Williams' tutelage for a while so not sure how she's become as bad as she is today.  [/quote]
