[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting I think I might understand the freakouts about Fairfax County now 7th grade algebra should be standard for advanced kids. Are there middle schools in Fairfax County that don't have this option? and then 8th grade Geometry?[/quote] PP here. I don't know about Fairfax because we are in Loudoun. But I think what I determined from other threads is that in FCPS the math acceleration happens sooner, like 4/5th? Whereas in Loudoun it happens in 6th, where they basically cram 2 years of math into 1. They claim they have "math differentiation" in ES but so far for my 2nd grader I can say that is a joke. Her class has been adding/subtracting numbers to 20 ALL.DAMN.YEAR. Unless her teacher is lying to my face, no students are receiving different (harder) math work. [/quote]
