[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For those whose kids got further math enrichment at your school, how did it happen? Did you push for it or did the school approach you? My DC scored over 590 by the end of 2nd grade, got it AAP for 3rd this year, and their last MAP was over 280. I believe the materials in class are not challenging enough. How should I proceed?[/quote] What grade? A 280 MAP in 3rd grade is extraordinarily unlikely, so if true it’s enough for a broader conversation with the school admin if there are similar strengths in other subject areas. A 590 math iReady in 2nd indicates 2-3 grades higher and most schools, even with AAP, cannot accommodate for that. You could ask for grade skipping opportunities, common within profoundly gifted. Outside enrichment is always a good option, especially if the focus is on math.[/quote]
