[quote=Anonymous]Kid is taking Algebra I in 8th, doing well, and claims he aced the placement test at his new HS, but the HS is not willing to let him into Geometry and is putting him in Algebra I Honors. They apparently have a program whereby Geometry can be taken over the summer after Freshman year, but offer no details on how long this will take or how much it will cost (and we are already stretched paying for regular tuition). We love many things about the school, but all bets will be off if our kid gets bored doing what essentially could be a repeat of Algebra his first year there and which in turn puts him a disadvantage with his peers when applying for college. Any advice on how to handle this with the school would be appreciated.[/quote]
