[quote=Anonymous]He's taking Algebra this coming school year (8th grade), and hoping to take Geometry next summer so he's caught up by the beginning of 9th. That is, caught up as in 2 years ahead of the national norm like some of his friends. I think if there was an option of taking Algebra this summer, he'd jump at it but in MCPS you can only take HS courses in the summer once you've graduated from middle school. I'd also worry more, I think, about whether he'd master everything he needed in 6 weeks to be ready for Algebra 2. I feel like Geometry is a little more forgiving because there's not Geometry 2.
