[quote=Anonymous]When my DD struggled with poor math teachers in FCPS, she taught herself. Smart kids who like math can do this, really like math. Math is their favorite subject. These are the honor math students and the students who should be accelerated - because there will be an occasional bad teacher. Op, if your DD doesn't turn this around I think the hard lesson here is going forward in future years, not merely the grade for this year, for this class. You will need to map out a new path, a new progression of math courses. If you're truly worried about a D or failure, make sure you know the rules re: withdrawing from the class and retaking (non honors) next year. Be prepared because the school may fight you on this (someone has to be at the bottom of the class - they don't care that it's your kid). A course correction in 9th will not look too bad for college. It will be better to have a firm foundation and stronger grades in less advanced courses, that will be better.[/quote]
