Virginia is nixing its advanced math classes for public school students in grades 10 and under in what the state is calling its new plan for “equity.”
According to the Virginia Department of Education, all students will now be forced to attend the same math classes regardless of whether they’ve got advanced math capabilities and could excel further.
In a tweet accompanying the new “plan” this week, the VDOE said the change will help “create more equitable math classrooms” – i.e., make sure non-white students aren’t disproportionately represented in advanced classes.
“Who Gets To Be A Math Person?” the VDOE tweeted. “Read more about how educators can create more equitable math classrooms that give all students the chance to succeed, even if they don’t fit the mold of what a ‘math person’ looks like.”
The department claims that “students from marginalized groups are often expected to develop math identities in spaces where they don’t feel valued.” To help combat that pile of utter nonsense, the VDOE said that on top of making sure all students attend the same classes regardless of their proficiency levels, “Districts can select more inclusive math textbooks that speak to a greater array of student experiences,” and teachers can foster classrooms “structured to allow for debate amongst students.”

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
