[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lots of acceleration in middle school, with 6th grade algebra a possibility. I know of one student that took algebra in 4th grade, but in 6th grade was again taking algebra. Not much acceleration in elementary. I think they've changed the Futura program. but it used to be one day a week, with most students bused to another elementary, Creighton's Corner & Selden's Landing were two of the schools.[/quote]Is there a district policy for 6th grade algebra or is it up to principal discretion?[/quote] Both of my kids were recommended to test into pre-algebra. Neither passed, so they were put into the next lower that the majority of smart kids go into (Foundations.) Then they both got recommended to skip pre and go straight into algebra in 7th, geometry in 8th, and so on.[/quote]
