Hey Guys,
It's been a while. How was this petition fared? I talked to Rita about this since I got email about this petition from her just a day ago about ideas for the future. Any interests?

Every kid is different. A good school should provide kids the classes based on the capabilities, not the school years. Thanks for the consideration.

Physics is a very essential part of science, other countries have started physics courses early in middle school, it would be positive change to have physics as an option for 9th and 10th grade. Thanks.

Having an option of regular physics is necessary to give kids exposure to physics and give them a chance to identify if higher studies in physics is for them or not.

Totally support this as my three SHS did not have this offered but was a req. for college major and could help in grad school!

We should definitely offer Physics before 11th grade. In Silicon Valley where many of our kids may have interest in Engineering and where Physics is an integral part of the Engineering curriculum, we are definitely not addressing our students' needs when we do not allow our kids the option of exploring Physics earlier.

I totally agree with this proposition. As a physics major I know that one year physics course is too hush for even advanced learner. some preparation has to be done at earlier stage.

I strongly support this. I am surprised that Physics is currently available only after 10th grade.
