[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]God forbid kids from lower income families get the chance to do advanced math too. Rich people gotta hoard, hoard, hoard! [/quote]

San Francisco's math track has been a pure disaster.  Everyone admits it now.  It harmed high achieving students, low achieving students, URMs, everyone.  [/quote]

That’s not FCPS’s E3. [/quote]

Neither is the PP's post about lower income families and hoarding.

San Francisco is relevant because their goal, to increase math attainment particularly for URMs, by [b]creating a single math track[/b] for everyone, failed everyone.  It did not achieve its goal.  And it didn't help URMs or any students.  It's a bad idea.  Irrefutably.[/quote]

That is NOT what E3 advocates for. They want more kids in accelerated tracks.

And it has nothing to do with SF.

Stop spreading misinformation.

E3 waters down math instruction by placing students in heterogeneous math classes in 3rd and 4th grade. Students at both ends of the achievement spectrum suffer as even good teachers can't differentiate in heterogeneous classes as well as teachers can in classrooms matched to student needs. Heterogeneous classes were the backbone of San Francisco's math reform.[/quote]

Now, if you’re posting in good faith, please share the key differences between the SF math and E3.
