San Francisco voters have decisively supported Proposition G, aimed at reintroducing Algebra I into the city's middle schools. The movement to bring algebra back began with a petition a year ago when 8th-grade algebra was absent from the curriculum. The district has now been tasked with reinstating the subject, following a strong mandate from the public, with more than 85% of voters backing the measure. Critics of the previous exclusion of algebra have pointed fingers at figures like Assembly Member Matt Haney, accusing him of being a "racist loser" in the decision to remove the subject. The successful passage of Prop. G has been met with gratitude from parents, students, and supporters, emphasizing the importance of algebra for middle school education in San Francisco and urging a "Vote Yes on G".
