[quote=Anonymous]Unless your child only barely passed the benchmarks, or a teacher advised you against it, or your child has expressed a strong preference against it, I don't see why your child shouldn't go ahead and enroll. I guess one other possible factor would be if you have concerns about transition to middle school and overall workload, or organization skills now they are moving to multiple classes with multiple teacher. However, if they've demonstrated the aptitude, it seems worth it to try it out. Even if your kid doesn't plan on a STEM type career, taking the high school math in middle school frees up more of their schedule in high school, because they are getting requirements out of the way.[/quote]
