[quote=Anonymous]OP here. It's not just LCPS that pulls kids toward Algebra in 7th. My DD's best friend in 3rd grade (FCPS) failed the SOL in 3rd grade. Friend moved to Va. Beach (military). Somehow, going into 7th next year, she is taking ALGEBRA. She moved up and has now exceeded the placement of my DD who has been in Adv. Math in 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th and has passed all SOLs so far. We are discouraged from putting our kids in Algebra -- and yet, the friend is apparently in a school district where they corrected the deficiencies of FCPS and moved her ahead of her FCPS peers. Just wondering how/why other districts are bringing kids into algebra in 7th while FCPS thinks it is a bad move for kids even though they have passed the 7th grade SOL (which seems to be the standard that other districts are using).[/quote]
