[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When did this change and why? We did not supplement in the aughts and certainly not in the 90s. [/quote] People supplemented. My brothers went to academic summer camps for more advanced math and science. Sylvan was starting to be a thing when I was in HS. There were workbooks and tutors and the like. I would guess that the foreign language schools on the weekend were there. [/quote] Are you Asian? I had no idea academic summer camps even existed. I can’t think of anyone I knew that went to one. I went to an excellent public school where many classmates went on to great colleges- no one was doing this. [/quote] My 7th grader went to an enrichment program for math and English. She’s an average student I just wanted to have her ready for 8th grade math. The majority of kids were Asian. [/quote]
