What form of achievement are we talking about? I’m seeing schools were anything less than all A’s is a failure. Are we dropping because kids are getting C’S?

- shawndrost 8y agoI'll recap the links I dropped in case they're hard to digest or whatever. They cover two measurements of achievement: * Before this change, 40% of SFUSD students had to retake Alg. After this change, it was 10%. * In a separate study focused on statewide 2008 effects of middle school alg, "enrolling more students in [middle school alg] has negative average effects on [10th-grade standardized test scores]". This SFUSD plan does not seem dumb from what I can tell, and I'm an informed and interested observer. Change my mind!
