"Where are our middle school Algebra 1 students going in mathematics?" is the question to ask ourselves. Combining data, research and the increased rigor in the math standards, there is a need for course analysis and correction. This session will provide an overview of ideas and options for districts to use to "re-think" acceleration routes. The Kansas State Department of Education white paper and other documents will be available to help districts start this conversation. [This is an encore of the 2017 NCSM annual conference presentation.]
