Virginia Department Of Education's webpage states:
The Virginia Mathematics Pathways Initiative (VMPI) will:
- Improve equity in mathematics learning opportunities
- Empower students to be active participants in a quantitative world
- Encourage students to see themselves as knowers and doers of mathematics
- Identify K-12 mathematics pathways that support future success
- Collaborate with multiple stakeholder to advance mathematics education
The VMPI will develop an initial vision for mathematics education in K-12 that will require feedback from many different stakeholders across the Commonwealth. This feedback will be critical when the Mathematics Standards of Learning revisions in 2023 reflect the goals and recommendations of this Initiative. Possible piloting of high school level mathematics courses prior to full implementation is now being considered. This Initiative will establish an innovative direction for mathematics education in Virginia that will benefit all students.
I've got to believe they are going to take into account feedback and adjust plans.
More than another other subject, children advance in mathematics at different paces.
