[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tell that to the public school Asians who are being denied accelerated math classes because of Democrats at the state DOE and the county Democrats who followed them.[/quote]
If I could find such a student I would tell them.  Unfortunately there are none.[/quote]

I could name ten right now.  That's just from one elementary school.  Stone Hill has at least 30 such kids.
And these are just the ones denied algebra that they would have been without the state DOE and VMPI, that got LCPS to go adopt early.
There are hundreds more who will be getting algebra in 8th rather than 7th.[/quote]

Liar.

VDOE did NOT tell school districts that they can’t offer advanced classes or acceleration.

He is relying on what he read that FoxNews picked up on coming out of LCPS:  https://www.foxnews.com/us/virginia-accelerated-math-courses-equity[/quote]

He's relying on reality.  We all saw this play out in real time.

Some weren't paying attention and others were yelling deflections and got the big thread deleted (that was a good way to obscure what happened, when, and in what order).  Which were you?[/quote]

I think the Republican nut jobs making up lies got the thread deleted because it showed that they were blatantly lying.

Um . . . unlike all the unnamed sources CNN and MSNBC use, the article actually quoted a person that attended the meeting firsthand.  Had he not brought light to the issue, it wouldn't have been dropped.:

Loudoun County school board member Ian Serotkin posted about the change via Facebook on Tuesday. According to Serotkin, he learned of the change the night prior during a briefing from staff on the Virginia Mathematics Pathway Initiative (VMPI).

"[A]s currently planned, this initiative will eliminate ALL math acceleration prior to 11th grade," he said. "That is not an exaggeration, nor does there appear to be any discretion in how local districts implement this. All 6th graders will take Foundational Concepts 6. All 7th graders will take Foundational Concepts 7. All 10th graders will take Essential Concepts 10. Only in 11th and 12th grade is there any opportunity for choice in higher math courses."[/quote]

Looks like Ian got it wrong - was he lying or just a moron.

VMPI hasn't even put out a draft yet - even today. Maybe if FoxNews had done some fact-checking they wouldn't put out such blatant lies.
