[Anonymous]

Our school sent a middle-school articulation chart with various dates. One column states, "Teacher recommendations due by ..."

What are teacher recommendations used for in terms of MS articulation? This is for a regular school, not a magnet program.

Thanks.

8th grade teachers recommend regular or Honors classes (by course) at the high school level. The high schools usually have some criteria for placement as guidance.

I think that comes from central office review.

But isn’t that supposed to be how math placement occurs? If that’s the case, then why are teacher recs used at all?

AIM placement is supposed to be from central office, but other math recommendations come from the current teacher.
