[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am opting my 5th grader out of 6th grade Algebra. It is totally unnecessary.[/quote] Same but I’m annoyed that all the kids are talking about it and now think they should take it if they’re strong in math. We’ve talked at length about this all yr and DC is fine w/ the decision not to rush this but was second guessing a bit this week after hearing all the chatter. Our crazy competitive school will likely have more than 1/2 of the AAP class enrolling. [/quote] Feels like the choice has become to insecurity, or hold them back. Do they have enough teachers…[/quote] Insecurity was meant to read unnecessarily rush [/quote] I see your point but I don't think having my AAP kid take pre algebra honors in 7th is holding her back. She has so many other things going on and is not in love with math. She will take calculus her senior year and it will be fine. [/quote] I read the poster as agreeing with your position, that parents who were pushing their kids into A1H in where rushing when they didn't need to. [/quote] if other kid is better than yours, does that mean their parent is pushing? Why compare at all, if not for some sense of insecurity of falling behind?[/quote]
