[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Now that that it is common for middle school students to take high school classes, I am just wondering how that impacts typical liberal arts college expectations. My DS/8th grader is in French 2. Would she be expected to take 3 or 4 additional years in HS? She also has geometry this year. The math scenario is a little more challenging because she may not be a great candidate for all of the next 4 levels of higher math. This was all easier to naviagte back in my day when HS math was just geometry/alg 2/precalc/ap calc. Thanks![/quote] if she's not a great candidate for higher level math, why did you accelerate her? I don't think its common for middle schoolers to take high school classes, though obviously it happens. For some its the right thing to do but the danger is that they plow through the material just fine but don't get the depth of understanding they will need to conquer higher level courses.[/quote]
