recommendations that advocate against teaching algebra to most of the state's gifted middle-schoolers in the name of equity.
The “gifted” kids? Shouldn’t the “gifted” kids be able to handle algebra? Is her end game, in the name of equity, to stifle the education of the gifted kids so that they end up equally stupid with the dumbasses? This makes no sense, but none of this equity crap makes any sense.

That is exactly what it is. She must think there is nothign we can do to get average black students to learn algebra, so therefore it's only fair that no one learn algebra.

I can speak for our school district and say that algebra is taught before middle school. I would be very surprised if the “gifted” schools weren’t doing the same. Something just seems off about that headline to me and I couldn’t track down the article to prove otherwise.
