[quote=Anonymous]I have a 6th grader who will be at Westland next year (we're in the RHPS/Westland/BCC zone, so 6th grade at CCES or NCC) and today we got a letter saying he'd been recommended for a month-long "support math" course during the summer. We thought he was holding his own in math - mostly solid Bs with the occasional A, which is amazing considering this is the first year since 2nd grade that he didn't have a tutor.

I'll reach out to his current teacher tomorrow but wondered how many kids get this kind of letter? Does this mean my kid is really having more difficulty than I realized? Or is it a mass distribution thing that is sent to many? The problem that I have is that we've already enrolled our son for camp during the month of July when this "extended year support" course would run. It would be a big deal to yank him out of camp (and cost us a lot too.) But now I'm worried we are going to miss a chance to keep him on (get him on?) the right track for HS math...

And whatever the answer is, I gotta say it's pretty clueless to send these kinds of letters out in late May, given that most people book camps in Jan/Feb/March.[/quote]
