[quote=Anonymous]About 30 kids a year will take Algebra 1 H in 6th grade in FCPS, it is rare. The process for getting onto this track is not publicized but it seems to be something that might happen for kids with very high CoGAT scores in 2nd grade. Kids will be skipped ahead in math in 4th grade and will end up in Pre-Algebra (Math 7 H) in 5th grade and Algebra 1 H in 6th grade. When you run the SOL results on 6th grade Algebra 1 SOL results there were 25 kids at 15 schools that took Algebra 1 H in 6th grade. All of them have fewer then 10 students who took the exam and so there is not a specific number of kids at each of those 15 schools. It is a very rare event.

I do know that most of the kids who take Algebra 1 H in 6th grade either have take the class first thing in the morning at the local MS and then return to their ES for the rest of the day. I believe parents have to provide transportation for the child to the ES.

I know that the other option is to take the class online.[/quote]
