I have a question for Georgia teachers about math support classes.
I could look it up but I was wondering about this when I woke up.
When GPS (Georgia Professional Standards) were rolled out in 2005, the intent was that all students would take Math 1 - Math 4 (Math 4 being trigonometry) in high school.
The results were so awful that the state changed its mind. The first end of course test for math 1 wasn't scored (well, it was but no one got to see them). The pass rate is still awful.
So, last summer they announced that students could take Math 1 - Math 3 and Math 3 support and that would count as their 4 math classes.
And for special education students, they could take math 1, math 1 support, math 2, and math 2 support and THAT would count as their 4 math classes.
Here is the question: is your school doing that past piece (math 1, math 1 support, math 2, and math 2 support) for general ed students?
