For the past three years, many middle schools across the city have quietly eliminated academic programs that meet the needs of advanced learners, using the pandemic as a pretext. At a time when standards are being lowered to disguise the needs of struggling students, New York’s advanced learners are even more bored and unchallenged, leading to learning resistance and social struggles. At one of the most vulnerable periods of a child’s life, it is unconscionable to allow children to stagnate academically, denying them the opportunity for growth and to meet their potential.
Thank you so much for taking the time to sign. Please forward the new petition to anyone else you know who might be willing to sign.
