[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are new to MCPS; the kid is strong in math, entering fifth grade. We are in a W high school pyramid. What kind of math in fifth grade leads to Algebra 1 in sixth grade, assuming there is such path? What types of math tracks are available in fifth grade and how do kids qualify for those?[/quote] You're in the right pyramid which will make this easier. Some ES offter AIM in 5th which will lead to Algebra in 6th. Other MS like Frost will allow any student who scores 250+ on their MAP-M to take Algebra in 6th. If you honestly believe your child is ready, I'd reach out to their school MS councilor. At some schools you will need ask or even push to make this happen, but W feeders are typically receptive unlike many other areas in the county.[/quote]
