[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can place her in Algebra 1. I would hope it would be automatic if she is taking it at her current school but you can place her in the class. FCPS might pushback a bit but know that you can place her in Algebra 1.[/quote]

Believe this is correct. But call Longfellow to be certain (they are very responsive).

OP: a word about Longfellow:

- it is an advanced and extremely competitive academic environment.  Both of my teens are fairly recent Longfellow grads; one is at TJ; the other is taking 4 APs and a DE class as a junior.

In your daughter’s 7th grade. Algebra 1 class, all the kids will be significantly advanced and are used to an accelerated pace.

If your daughter struggles at first, don’t worry.  The region serving Longfellow has ample supplementation resources.  While we never used any of them, other Longfellow parents have mentioned Mathnasium, Kumon, Tutoring Club, and a few others - all here in McLean.  There is even free online tutoring offered by FCPS, including math.  Don’t hesitate to reach out.
