[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, NP here. My rising 9th grader who just graduated from a parochial K-8 and is going into a diocesan HS has completed both Algebra I and Geometry also.  She tested into Algebra II for 9th grade.  I am not saying this is super special, but it is not BEHIND public school kids.  Also, she had to pass exemption exams for both  Algebra I and Geometry to place into Algebra II; we couldn’t just sign her up for it, like her parochial school peers who are going into Fairfax County public HSs; she passed both those exams with flying colors.  And our parochial K-8 had full-time school during ‘20-‘21 (her 7th grade year) when all of FCPS was remote.

This.  But I would also add that many public systems (MCPS for one) saw severe drops in math scores.  Specifically in Geometry and Algebra.[/quote]

Plenty of public school kids are doing well in algebra and geometry. You do not need parochial to achieve that and would argue that one might as well attend public rather than pay for parochial unless one wants a smaller class size. That would be the only benefit. [/quote]
