[quote=Anonymous]Reach out to discuss the strengths and weaknesses demonstrated on the placement test. Consider if it shows that he truly doesn't understand algebra 1 and would benefit from a refresher -- getting through high school math isn't a race and it's better that he understand the fundamentals than that he be accelerated. Ask questions about what's taught in the new school's class to see how much new material there would be. If you think he just had a bad day or there are only a few units he struggled with, ask if he can study over the summer (perhaps with a tutor) and retake the test at the end of the summer.[/quote]
