[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, I'm not the one signing up my kid for CML!  The school is doing it--we are at Haycock Elementary.  And, this is the first time I've seen this also, so that's why I'm asking.  My other child is in 6th grade and they have math competition (via a team) but the 6th grader didn't have CML in 2nd grade.  I'm trying to understand if it's a FCPS thing that got instituted this year or something across the county, but it sounds like that is not the case.  But every 2nd grader at Haycock is taking the CML this year and I'm starting to wonder why.[/quote]

That's strange.  Why would Haycock or some of the other schools that people mentioned take it and not all 2nd graders across FCPS?  Is this something that the school determines?  We are in an elementary school in Vienna and the 2nd graders aren't taking this.  Seems strange to be random about something like that, I think.[/quote]

Why is it strange?  It isn’t a standardized test. It’s an optional math competition. At our Vienna school the AAP kids start CML in 3rd grade. Other schools
Don’t do it, and still others have everyone participate. Apparently Haycock is starting g in 2nd, probably just to get them used to it. [/quote]
