[quote=Anonymous]Where it matters is high school. At Deal, 6th graders take either math 6 or math 7. In 7th grade, math 7 or math 8. In 8th grade, math 8 or pre-algebra. When they move to Jackson Reed, as a freshman, they will take Algebra 1 if they have already taken pre-algebra. However, if they took math 8, they start in pre-algebra as a freshman. Then as a sophomore, they can move on to geometry or Algebra 1. I think you probably get the idea. Bottom line, if they only get to math 8 at Deal, it makes it hard to impossible for them to get all the way to trig and pre-calc, physics, etc. in high school. And, that can make them less competitive for college slots, especially if they are interested in STEM. [/quote]
