What's FST?
In my district, students were required to go through Algebra II and Geometry. We were also required to take three years of math. As a result, kids who took Algebra I in middle School went Algebra II->Geometry->Precal, while those who didn't went Algebra I-> Algebra II->Geometry. One group had the requirements by default, and the other didn't need to decide until senior year.
- topkai22 7y agoFST was functions statistics and trig. Might not be a thing anymore. We required 3 years of high school math, but if you did algebra in 7th grade it counted toward the requirement. A lot of higher tracked kids were done with thier math requirement by the end of 9th grade as a result.
- vonmoltke 7y agoOh, in my district (at the time) you had to take three math classes in high school, regardless of what level you were at.
