[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Which schools offer Algebra 2 onsite in 8th grade? If a school doesn't offer it onsite, is it better to take it at nearby high school, or take an outside course / home study and try to skip via exam in high school in 9th grade? [/quote] The wealthy Potomac ones. [/quote] You attracted the MCPS math troll, OP. It’s better to take first period Alg 2 at the high school, then return to second period at the middle school. That way it’s still the MCPS curriculum. DD just did this, and it also gave her the opportunity to gently transition into the high school building. This is in the BCC cluster. I don’t know of any middle school offering Alg 2, apart from magnets, I suppose. MCPS is trying to move away from offering to much customization.[/quote] The real math troll is the poster who keeps trying to cover up these inequities. It's horrible that wealthy schools offer enrichment not available to all students.[/quote]
