[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who cares what the numbers are,  What parents care about is that there is sufficient and challenging teaching in math for their kids.  The goal is not the floor but the ceiling - something for kids to strive and reach their full potential with math. It is not happening for so many kids in this town.

Yes OP, your kid should take AP Cal in 11th if your kid can handle it.  Then take the next level math course.  Heck, your kid should take it in 10th even if your kid can handle it.  And it should be offered and there should be a track leading up to this.

Families shouldn’t have to play a lottery to get into a school just for adequate math instruction and challenge.  It should be offered to all,

Families here trying to justify and give a pass for not taking Cal in high school or not taking it earlier for kids who can handle advanced work are not the solution but part of the problem and why we are left with crumbs in math offerrings that we have in DCPS.  Everyone should be advocating for stronger and more advanced math programming, not justifying the poor status quo.  [/quote]

I assume the person who boldly lied about the numbers cared about what the numbers were. [/quote]
