[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I wouldn't worry about the endgame just yet--you'll drive yourself crazy and lots can change between now and then since your son is only in first grade!  Put him in the class that seems appropriate and worry about the rest later.  I will say, though, that as things currently stand, you won't be able to avoid traveling to MS in ES, and then to HS in MS.  Even at TPMS/Clemente the highest class offered for 8th grade is Alg 2.  (And that assumes your child will even get into TPMS.  While he probably would, it's not a guarantee and the acceptance rate is something like 1 in 10.)  [/quote]

Thank you, and I agree. I appreciate the acceleration/enrichment office trying to give us a big picture, but thinking about high school for a first grader seems excessive. So much could change. What we do need to decide now is whether to accept the 4/5 recommendation for next year, or refuse it and put him in regular 4. His math teacher and principal seem to think he really belongs in the 4/5 and that he'd be frustrated in 4. [/quote]
