[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Brent:  advanced students move up to an appropriate level of challenge.  i understand that there are third graders who are  taking fourth amd fifth grade math this year.  I believe this is typically done under the tutelage of the science teacher.  I'm not sure if there is any precedent for adapting to a fourth or fifth grader who is at middle school level.  [/quote]

Typically Brent (or any of the Cap Hill schools) while georgraphically EoTP, are the cap hill schools. The EoTP schools refer to petworth, col Heights, Logan Circle  etc.  And [b]its telling that no one from those schools can offer up any options for advanced math students because they don't exist at these schools.[/b] [/quote]

Do you mean advanced kids don't exist, or options for them don't exist?  Because 15% of the kids at Powell, 11% of kids at Bancroft, 26% of the kids at Cleveland, 31% of the kids at Thomson, and 22% of the kids at Tubman scored advanced last year in math.

One challenge with sending kids up a grade for math is that it only works until the kid's exhausted 5th grade math.  Another challenge is that the kid still needs some time to review grade-level math so he or she is able to score advanced again on the CAS.[/quote]
