[quote=Anonymous]My kids came out of an ES w/ a LOT of super high fliers (at both home school & HGC), & none took IM in 5th. When they got to magnet in middle, a few kids had. I suspect that if the kids were outliers, & the home school wasn't prepared to do the compacted curriculum, they just bused them to a middle school and bumped them up a year. I know kids at an ES that had to go to a middle school to do compacted, so who knows. I guess the county and principal weigh in? Whatever the case, it's more about admin than individual talent. Several kids in my DC's peer group were high fliers, but school did not let anyone do anything other than compacted. My dc is currently at Blair magnet on hardest math track. Occasionally they have had a kid a year younger in a class. The kid isn't necessarily a math genius, but just has had the previous class earlier. I don't know how this has played out, but I suspect it as an admin thing.[/quote]
