[quote=Anonymous]My 9th grade DD was recommended for honors algebra 2 this year. She has considerable challenges related to HFA but math has been one continual bright spot for her.

When she got her schedule she was placed in on-grade level algebra 2. I emailed the guidance counselor who told me that she had to be placed in it because her IEP says that she has to be in a supported class and the school does not offer a supported honors level class. He did say that we could convene an IEP meeting and change the requirement of math support.

Today her teacher approached her and asked why she was in this class because she is finishing so quickly, and now my DD wants me to put her in the honors level even without the support because she says it’s too slow (we are in MCPS do it has only been 3 days), but I am conflicted. I don’t want her to have behaviors due to boredom, but I also want there to be support if she needs it for breaking down word problems or testing in a quiet location.

Does anyone know what a supported class looks like in high school vs unsupported? Is there anything I can/should ask the school?

Thank you got any advice.[/quote]
