[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would say that Advanced Math is more important then LIII. Advanced Math is a regular, daily program that leads to acceleration in math for students who are ready. LIII is good but it is a one hour a week pull out at schools that do it right. Many schools don’t hold it regularly or for the full hour. It is great, my son enjoys it, but Advanced Math is the program with a real impact.[/quote]

I am the OP.  My spouse is a middle school math teacher.  My oldest is taking Geometry as an 8th grade because he wanted to take Alg 1 in 7th - but I assume even my 5th grader in AAP is "only" going to take Alg 1 in 8th - and I am ok with that.  I expect my youngest will take Alg 1 in 8th too and I expect my spouse will make sure she is on track.

I am not even sure what our base school offers in this respect.  They did not offer advanced math until 5th grade when my oldest was considering going to the center and since he really likes math - that was a big consideration.  Though as I understand it - our base was forced to offer advanced math options in lower grades now.[/quote]
