At what point do we say "they have not mastered or understand enough content to be successful in later courses"? Asking for a friend.

I think we’re saying it now...they’re not mastering it but the truth is they don’t care. Just cramming more & more assessments. I’m still in shock that we’re having year end State assessments 😱🤯

I've asked that question, I have BC Calculus students that never learned parametric Eq, or polar Eq.
I currently have students in PreCal who have a C average thanks to mandated grading policies, that still say things like sin-oh when trying to say sine of theta.

I finally was able to convince my principal that we need a consistent math intervention at the MS level (grades 5-8). (Right now, we are just "doing our own thing," which isn't helping students progress much.) Does anyone have any suggestions? It would be beneficial to have some sort of progress monitoring tool as part of the program, if possible. Our classes run roughly 55 minutes (which is too long for an intervention, in my humble opinion).

Thanks for any advice.

I found using GoFormative’s free version to be very helpful in teaching new topics to my students. I embed videos I make demonstrating how to complete a question, next I ask them to complete an example showing work, and then the next question they type their answer so it automatically alerts them to see if they answered correctly. It can be used live in a meet and on an independent virtual day. In my google meets, I’m able to give feedback on any question they have trouble with in real time.

My district has finally gone 1-to-1. Is there a good app or website that I could use to have students submit answers anonymously while going over problems in class? I did this last week using Kahoot to go over a state testing review packet. It was great because I could see how many got the right answer and move on if no one missed the question. However, I would like to do it without having to create something in advance. I hope this doesn't sound confusing.
