[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Strangely, so far so good. I have a 6th grader but in another district. They have tracks for math. My theory is that if you are on a higher track, you get into a cohort with other nerdy kids who are in other classes with you as well. 
It’s a very ordinary middle school, 30% farms/esl. [/quote]

Correct. However your child can still be exposed in the bus or during other classes.

My son at North Bethesda MS a few years ago wasn’t exposed to the horrors other posters describe. He was in with a nerdy crowd, and was driven to school.

It’s probably possible, yes. No bus for my kid. I think other classes align with the math ones to a large degree so he doesn’t have that many disruptive kids there. But of course anything can happen. [/quote]

My son is in above grade level math (2 years advanced) and there are still two disruptive boys in his pre-calculus class. My guess is that they were like this in MS as well and didn’t just start acting up in 10th grade. [/quote]

That's awesome to hear. The world needs smart disruptors[/quote]
disruptors is one thing, obnoxious is another.
