[quote=Anonymous]My 6th grade DD is in IM this year. Early in the year, she was having some struggles, so we started supplementing with Khan Academy at home. That has made a tremendous difference. Still, I had hoped that there would be an option in 7th grade to do something in between full-on Algebra I in 7th and repeating IM (eg, Algebra I over 2 years 7-8 grade). There is no such option. She has to take Algebra I or repeat IM (which would be ridiculous, at this point, with the supplementation she is a solid A/B student in IM). So, I think these tracks solidify early on (at least for middle school). I assume that when high school rolls around, my DD will not be "forced" into BC Calculus and will be able to downshift track (if that's the right thing to do at that point). But I find it crazy that there's no ability to downshift in middle school. [/quote]
