[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]IOWA is no longer required for taking Algebra 1 HN. FCPS changed that rule.[/quote] It’s not required but that does not mean it’s a good idea to ignore the score as parents decide if Algebra 1 H will be a good choice for their specific kid. OP asked for advice after missing the main cut off level. If their kid has a very high Iowa score then it’s a better bet to push to get it reconsidered. If they have an Iowa score near 9 or below though then my personal advice is not to do Alg 1 H. [/quote] This. FCPS has been clear for years that the old method (IOWA + pass advanced) successfully predicted success in Algebra 1 H. The SOL results bear that out. If the IOWA is good and the 6th grade teacher thinks she can handle it, then she can handle it. If the IOWA isn't above the old cut score and/or the teacher discourages it, I wouldn't push it.[/quote]
