[quote=Anonymous]The principal had nothing to do with the choice many parents made at our school to opt out. Initially, many were choosing to opt in (when they didn’t necessarily want to) bc they thought everyone was doing it and were scared their kids would be alone on the regular advanced math path. That’s simply not the case. Many of us opting out have kids who would likely do just fine with A1H in 6th, but we are concerned about learning gaps caused by this jump and more importantly, looked at where this level of acceleration will put our kids on the high school sequence. The high school sequence was the biggest determinant in our household. I predict a lot of regret when many of these 6th A1H kids get to freshman year of high school. [/quote]
