| Is compacted math 5/6 in 5th grade an automatic pathway after a kid has successfully completed compacted 4/5 in 4th? Are we supposed to hear anything from the teachers/school about 5th grade math placement? |

If they had As and Bs in 4/5 yes it's essentially automatic. |

It is automatic, but parent could opt kid back to just 5th grade if they felt that was better for child. |

| NP. This is encouraging. Wasn’t there a year where they dismissed a bunch of kids after 4/5? Glad to hear they seem to no longer be doing that. |

| Some schools send home letters to confirm. |

| It is not automatic. I teach math 5 and math 5/6. I have almost 15 kids that were in math 4/5 that will be joining my math 5 class next year. If you are questioning, please reach out to your school. If your child is not earning majority A’s and a handful of B’s, they should not continue in the advanced track in 5/6. |

| I think this is very much school specific. At our school, they kept everyone from 4/5 in 5/6 and added some kids who took math 4 but did very well in the spring MAP |
