[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would do honors. Every parent I know who has had a kid take a non-honors class has regretted it, the classes move really slow and the kids are far less motivated to take the class seriously.[/quote]

I agree. And another point that my son agreed with is that if the problem is mostly organization then that won’t change in non honors. That’s just a skill your child is learning. So then they’ll still get a B because of lack of organization, but now not in honors. [/quote]

Op here, good point.  I was just thinking if the class was going slower, maybe it gave more time to study for tests/concepts etc. but at the end of the day, I am convinced the content/material wasn't the challenge for DC. They also didn't take advantage of the retake policy for summatives despite my urging and never studied till the last moment. So frustrating to see![/quote]

Your child doesn’t sound like honors material, frankly. He will do the same thing or even worse if he continues with honors. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.[/quote]

Does every kid taking Geometry Honors have an A in Algebra Honors? [/quote]
