The more I dive into the literature, we have to STOP pushing students forward in math if they do not have solid foundational skills in algebra. It's almost impossible to fix algebra and trigonometry foundations when a student lands in calculus. #STEMpipelineProblems.

Almost a data point in Long et al. (2009) on Florida's college math readiness gaps. As a grad student diving into Florida's math data, the problem’s worse & not just FL’s. Weak high school math prep is choking the STEM pipeline. How do we fill the gaps in Florida's high school.

I am not hopeful for the STEM pipeline in FL. Without strong math teachers in BOTH middle and high school, we are doomed. Additionally, removing the incentives for offering courses like AP Calculus and AP Precalculus will only remove the opportunities for students to take these.
