[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are so many people in Northern VA so eager to push their kids ahead in math? If the kids don't get a good foundation, they will only suffer when they get to higher level math. I have heard of college professors complaining that kids come to them now totally unprepared. Is this county so full of math genius's? The true ones would easily be spotted by their elementary math teachers.[/quote] My son's 6th grade teacher told me in a conference that he was appalled at how fast the system (and parents) are trying to rush their kids through the basics. As you said, many wind up later being completely unprepared and in over their heads. The math acceleration frenzy in FCPS is crazy.[/quote]
