Ban MATHia in HISD


Ban MATHia in HISD
The Issue
In algebra, geometry and regular math we all have mathia. In algebra and geometry in particular, we had to reach 80% by a specific date. This is impossible to achieve. Many kids just payed others to do it for them. Others were spending over 13 hours working and working due to unfair rules. Personally, on MATHia, I am at 59%. I have logged over 30 hours for barely halfway. THAT IS 1 WHOLE DAY AND 6 HOURS. I’ve had to put aside projects because of this and now I am rushing to do those. I believe that something that affects us this much and steals our time should not be used any more. Try a lesson, you’ll see how hard it is.
