[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter is entering 9th grade and received a merit scholarship to a private school. She has all A's in 8th grade at a good public school and takes honors classes. Before we learned about the scholarship, she was recommended for all honors and AP classes at our public high school. We were very confused that the private school is only placing her in two honors classes next year. Is that typical? In public school, many kids take all honors. [/quote] Very typical. Your entire frame of reference is about to change. Take it year by year and encourage her to do well consistently. If she's excelling as a freshman, she can always add an honors class or two the next year. Also, for future reference, privates are sometimes strict about how many APs kids can take, and they might limit enrollment to those with a GPA of a certain level. [/quote]
