I live in Fauquier County and will email this website to all people I know in
Prince William. Fauquier is sneaking TERC into the classrooms here as well. I
will be watching what goes on in Prince William with great interest. Good luck
to you in your fight!!!

Subject: Please Help - Act Now To Restore Quality Math Instruction in
PWCS!!
Dear Friends and Neighbors,
Many if not all of you know (particularly those of you with K-3
children) that last year our school district adopted a
radical "reform" math program - TERC "Investigations" - that is
undermining our students' education. Despite the fact that this
program has an ongoing record of failure in state after state and
school district after school district across the nation, PWCS is
committed to experimenting with our children using "Investigations"
as the only acceptable elementary math program permitted in our
schools. As parents and citizens, we need to stop the madness and act
now to restore quality, proven, traditional math in our schools.
Please go to http://www.pwcteachmathright.com to learn just what our
kids are learning - or rather not learning under this program. Then
if you are a resident of PWC and over 18 please read and sign the
site's petition to remove "Investigations" from PWCS.
Or if you're already familiar with this dismal program you can go
direct to our petition at:

Thank you,
