I'm not saying there's a right or wrong side to the issue of teaching 
math, I'm simply pointing out that there are strong opinions when it 
comes to educating children. 

It also goes on to say that the issues aren't always clear.  Is it the 
program itself that's flawed?  Is it a result of teacher training?  Is 
it actually flawed when the students in the district did better than NY 
State average? 

Anyway, food for thought on a Monday morning.
