[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think middle school magnet lottery requires an "A" in math on report cards for 4th grade and 1st quarter of 5th grade for the math magnet programs. Does this take into consideration whether a child is in compacted math or not?[/quote]

Where does it say that both 4th Grade and 1st Quarter of 5th grade report cards will be  considered ? All I see is below from the FAQs last year :

[i]To be placed in the humanities and communication lottery pool, an A in both reading and writing and an indication of above reading grade level on the report card from Grade 4, and a locally normed minimum of 85th percentile on either last year (winter) or this year’s (fall) MAP-R.  For math, science or computer science, an A in both math and science and an indication of on level or higher for reading on the report card from Grade 4 and a locally normed minimum of 85th percentile on either last year (winter) or this year’s (fall) MAP-M. [/i]

I don't know how you could hang with the STEM magnet math curriculum if you weren't in compacted math. It picks up where. compacted math left off, and the kids who don't follow that path are a level above (very few). [/quote]
