Math 7 Hons IS Math 8.  It's just all 7th graders in Math 7 hons.[/quote]

Still confused.  I just asked my 6th grader who told me Math 7 honors doesnt exist in his LL IV AAP class.[/quote]

Disregard,  I figured it out.  I think Fairfax County makes it confusing.  Stop using Math 7 honors and just call it Math 8.[/quote]

Math 7 Honors and Math 8 aren't the same class, though.  Both cover 8th grade math, but the Math 8 class is slower paced and intended for kids who aren't advanced in math.  Those kids generally will take regular Algebra the following year.  Math 7 Honors will cover the same content as Math 8, but at a higher and deeper level.  It's intended for 7th graders who are advanced in math but not advanced enough for Algebra.  The kids taking Math 7 Honors will be taking Honors Algebra the following year.  [/quote]

Thanks for confusing me again. Just when I thought I had it understood, lol.
Anyways,  I still consider kids that take Algebra 1 in 8th grade an advanced track. [/quote]
