[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FCPS??  It was my understanding the results were suppose to be in prior to 7th grade class selection due date.  Which has already passed.

Why? Algebra I placement in 7th grade is based upon both the IAAT results and the math SOL. Math placement for 7th grade therefore would not be determined until the summer.[/quote]

True, but if a child does well in the IAAT, he/she usually gets a pass advance in the Math SOL.  [/quote]

This was certainly not the case last year, with the new math standards for the SOL.[/quote]

Not really [b]it just brings it closer to the former rule[/b].  A few years ago students had to pass the [b]8th[/b] grade SOL and the state made them move it to the 7th grade SOL.  If a student is ready for Algebra he should be able to pass the SOL that comes two years prior to Algebra.  If a student does well (&gt;91 percentile on IAAT) and doesn't do well on the [i]7th[/i] grade SOL, then perhaps his/her preparation was sloppy and he/she needs more reinforcement.

Today's 7th grade Math SOL standards are very different from the long-time-ago 8th grade math SOL standards.[/quote]
