[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They are providing talking points to mollify angry parents and teachers. They have revealed the reality earlier. I asked if they intended to have the kids who couldn't qualify for algebra in middle school now take a harder curriculum. No response. Yet this is what is suggested by their putting algebra 2 in math 10, when before it would have been only geometry for the weakest students. These are dumbed down courses with lots of additional material in other subjects they consider more important.[/quote] Their recent responses (combined with their continued dedication to implementing VMPI) means they intend to remove most acceleration opportunities and make the coursework less rigorous.[/quote]
