[quote=Anonymous]No one is saying they are struggling. Struggling means they are not up to their current grade level. If this was happening, you would have heard, and heard lots because if a child hits the struggling level, MCPS has to start doing paperwork to track the issue. You got the letter because MCPS wants you to do something this summer so they are a little more sure that your DC won't hit the struggling level next year. With math there are at least 3 years before algebra that teach nearly the same thing. As 6th grade ends, you have another year to tutor and make sure your DC makes algebra in the 8th grade. As long as your child is in algebra in the 8th grade, they won't be limited in HS and college. That does not mean that algebra in the 8th grade and barely making honors English is going to get them into UMd or UVa. [/quote]
