[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The biggest issue is that every parent at Whitman believes their child is gifted so honors math ends up being average math.[/quote] ... and it's "bad teaching" if their child has any problem grasping math concepts! [/quote] That was our experience when our kids were at Whitman. We ended up going private. The honors classes were poorly taught and very watered down since every class was an honors class.[/quote] We had the opposite experience - DC came to Whitman from a private school and the math classes were much better and the students farther ahead in math at Whitman. In fact that's why DC was in honors geo in 9th grade when most of the other kids had taken it in 8th grade.[/quote]
