[quote=Anonymous]In FCPS, it can potentially start in 3rd grade through the AAP program. It accelerates a bit each year, so that by the end of 6th grade, the students have completed the equivalent of 7th grade math. From there, there are two normal-ish tracks. 1. Take 8th grade math in 7th grade, then Algebra 1 in 8th, geometry in 9th, etc 2. Additional acceleration - they can test straight into Algebra 1 in 7th, effectively skipping over the standard 8th grade math class. Then they can take geometry in 8th, and so on. There can be some acceleration, either by getting up to Algebra 1 in 6th grade, or taking a math class like geometry as a summer class. Kids who do this could be in Alg 2 by 8th grade and Pre-calc in 9th. This is a lot less common, though. [/quote]
