[quote=Anonymous]I don’t know how rigorous Honors classes are. I know one friend has a kid that asked to move from the regular class into honors because the regular class was distracting and a joke. The honors class is probably too much for him, he struggles in it, but the regular class is way too easy. I can see dropping from AP to Honors but I would guess that the regular class at most schools is not a great fit for most kids. AAP isn’t that rigorous, the Advanced Math portion is about the only part that is challenging for some kids. DS is great at math but not at LA, he is fine but not advanced. He has had no issues in LIV classes in MS, we deferred in ES for a language program. I can see Honors math being hard for kids but I wouldn’t let a B student drop to the regular class, in any subject, because they are having to work to get a B. I would consider a C student dropping and anything lower then a C is an automatic drop down.[/quote]
