[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To the families who are dissatisfied with the Math program, did your complaints fall on deaf ears? Is the math program not challenging? Do the teachers need more training to adequately teach the lessons? I read in another Langley post a while back that they were supposed to address the math program -- not so? [/quote] They have addressed the math curriculum. They hired an amazing lower school math assistant. However, some of it is too little too late. Ask how many girls are in the high math group in the middle school. Hardly any. Many girls feel as though they're not good at math. Math facts are not drilled. Mad minutes were removed because parents complained that it was too much pressure on their kids. Kids come home with multiple choice everyday math worksheets. Math in the lower school isn't taught as bring applicable to everyday life so it can get boring for kids. [/quote]
