[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Accelerating a 7th grader in to a class with 12th graders would freak me out as a parent. Lots of social conversations that I wouldn't want child to hear ...[/quote] I saw this done rather well in my public HS decades ago: fifth grader coming up to the HS in AM to take calculus with the honors calculus HS crowd. No worries about inappropriate conversation...the 5th grader was put in honors calc, after all, with all the math geeks who were passionate about one thing: fomulas. Like the GDS poster said, this is for truly gifted children, not simply those who are a couple years ahead. [/quote]
