[quote=Anonymous]We were told that the placement was based on " SOLS, 5th grade Math inventory, and COGAT". But I am not clear at all about how those things are weighted. Also I am not clear at all about how much flexibility the teacher has to make recommendations or if it is 100% based on the scores. Does anyone know? My kid has a very inexperienced teacher who said she had no idea how placement is done when we asked her in the fall. The info we got was from other administrators in the school. My kid is doing 5th grade math from Beast Academy because he is bored in school and asked for extra math and got a 99% on the COGAT but I am worried that his SOL may not be high enough to qualify him for advanced math (he scored above average last year but I don't remember his score being particularly high) and then I will have to deal with another year of him complaining about being bored...[/quote]
