Congratulations to Jason Johnson!
Jason was in the 11th grade but he graduated early The Plonski Math Method
Jason Johnson came to me as a student when he entered the eighth grade.
Diagnostic tests indicated he had weak areas in his Math Skills.
I started him immediately on the PLONSKI MATH METHOD.
This method helps the student to learn to become an aggressive,
independent learner. It focuses on building five thinking skills:
gather data, compare, analyze, evaluate, and organize.
For the next
four years Jason did not use any standard math textbook. Instead he
only used the materials provided by the PLONSKI MATH METHOD.
Jason was in the 11th grade of high school when he passed the
California High School Proficiency Exam on June 18, 2011.
Because he passed this test, the California State Board of Education
issued him a Certificate of High School Proficiency. This allowed
Jason to skip the 12th grade of high school and go directly to college.
Or Jason could choose to go to work full time with no need for a student work permit.

Note: The letter below is about Heather Pina.
Heather used the PLONSKI MATH METHOD while in the 7th, 8th, and 9th grades.
Instead of going into the 10th grade, she went straight into college.

From : ttpina@xxxx.xxxt Sent : Friday, September 2, 2005 9:51 AM To : tomplonski@hotmail.com Subject : Pina's new email address Dear Mr. Plonski, We have changed our email address to ttpina@xxx.xxx. We hope you will update our address in your list. Heather has begun college this year at 16 instead of finishing High School. She did very well on her placement test. She passed the entry level math portion with such high scores that they recommended that she take another test to see if she qualifies for Freshman Algebra. She will take that test in the winter. That is not too bad for a 16 year old, huh. Especially compared to the number of students at COD who are high school graduates and can't get into Freshman Algebra. Tony said that when he worked there, only 9% of entering Freshman placed high enough on the placement test to qualify for Freshman Algebra. Thanks for everything you and Plonski math have done for our daughters. Teresa Pina |

Marrissa transfered to Tom Plonski Christian School from another
high school. At that time Marrissa was severely deficient in all academic
areas. In her previous high school she was failing all of her high school
classes. ******************************************* TOM PLONSKI 80-817 Hayleigh Court Indio, CA 92201 Phone (760) 702-2962 Website: www.TomPlonski.com ******************************************* Tom Plonski also tutors adults. . |
