[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You should be in touch with your DC's advisor, OP. Answering these sorts of questions is exactly what they are there for. Agree that a move down in math may be appropriate for next year. -- former Potomac US teacher and advisor[/quote] PP, wanted to add to this that it makes sense that you would post here and you've gotten good responses -- but you are not taking advantage of the advisory system if you don't ask the advisor about these issues. Email the advisor and say something like, "I'm a little concerned about DC's interest levels dipping in some classes; I was hoping we could have a phone chat [or meeting if you prefer] to get a sense of what you're seeing." Hopefully the advisor's already been in touch regarding grades and placement for next year, but if you are still having these questions, that tells me that you could benefit from being in closer contact with the advisor. Don't be pushy/aggressive/entitled, but don't be afraid to reach out.[/quote]
