The thing I don't understand is - how does subject acceleration cost the school money? I guess if there were too many kids in a class and the need for more teachers, but other than that - as long as there is a seat why can't a child do it.
It would also take the burden off of teachers who could focus their attention on the students who actually do need help in the math area the teacher is getting.
I honestly don't understand why TEACHERS don't advocate for subject accleration in the least. I am an adjunct college professor and it is much easier to teach a class with students at similar education/intelligence levels then when I have students all over the map.
It is the teacher push back I really don't understand.
