[quote=Anonymous]My eighth grade DC mentioned recently that he is not understanding the most recent topic in Honors Geometry and would like to drop down to the easier math. It may be that he just needs to learn the new topic and will soon get it. He has always received A’s in his math classes, but there may be some grade inflation going on. He has an interim grade of 92 for Geometry. His seventh-grade spring MAP M was 261 and for fall eighth grade he got a 260.

Math will get more difficult in high school depending on what he takes.

It looks like he has three probably options:

Drop to the easier math this year (is that still an option) then take Honors Geometry in ninth grade and take the Honors route the rest of high school.
Take Algebra 2 next and the non-Honors route.
Stay with Honors Geometry this year and Honors Algebra 2 next year and continue the Honors route.

Can he flip between non-honors and Honors classes in high school? For instance, Algebra 2 &gt; Honors Precalc or Honors Algebra 2 &gt; Precalc

Anybody go through this that has some thoughts?
