I saw in a later post that you mentioned algebra. I do agree with you on that.

The Texas Education Agency and the State Board did that in Texas - under Ma Richards and the dims - over 10 years ago. But I believe the special needs are excluded. The problem is that many students are now being diagnosed special needs so that they are not required to take the state test.

I understand and appreciate that.

This is occurring now, however, as a direct result of NCLB.
