[quote=Anonymous]There are kids who are stronger at LA then Math who end up in LIV in ES and MS. I would guess that many of the LA strong kids do fine with math in ES but most end up in 7th H and not Algebra 1 H in 7th grade. Some because they don’t make the test cut offs and some who do who just don’t love math. I can easily see the LIV kids who do well in 7th H and Algebra 1 H in 8th grade finding that math is getting harder and struggling to maintain that A in math and wanting to move into regular Geometry or Algebra II.

I can see the LIV kid who crushed math not being as strong in LA and struggling with HS Honors/AP/IB language arts and wanting to take the next level down.

I was a kid who took AP History/English in HS and regular math and science. I had LDs that greatly impacted math and science and were less of an issue in LA and Social Studies. It happens.

If your child is struggling to maintain a grade that you or they find acceptable in an H class, is it worth the stress to keep them in honors? [/quote]
