Re: BEWARE Loudoun County - Math Investigations
Posted by LCPS NEWS on 2/14/08

    Well, at the beginning of this year, I was in a "training'
    with the LCPS math sup. It was stated that all schools would
    be doing MI next year. Well, a year is changing things
    SLOWLY. Now the official LCPS policy is that they are going
    to only continue to do MI fully in the select schools. They
    are going to collect data for 2-3 years and then make the
    decision whether to fully implement MI. If they do, I am
    gone. But, I have spoken to school board members who are
    aware of what is going on and don't like it. Keep the
    pressure up parents in LCPS! IT IS WORKING!! GET RID OF MATH
    INVESTIGATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!
