Manchester sends rec’s after..... (so she may well recommend functions.). Also, if you do the math camp for blair, some kids get pulled in that way. BUT, understand that class is no joke. Super hard, very few A’s, and an enormous amount of homework.

Yes, this. Ask Ms. Manchester about it. Or, better yet, have your kid ask her. I think she asks for an essay even.

Functions nearly killed my math lover, but they still love math and the teacher. Here's an example: they had a snow day, so he arranged an online class that was supposed to be like 1-2 hrs. They were working in online groups for 4-5 hours. Homework for this class can take 5 hours. If you are a parent who has already enriched your kid with outside math classes (you all know who you are), it won't be as intense. For mine -- who is artsy fartsy and never supplemented with Mr. Li or CTY or A++ or whatever (& who also has outside commitments), but who came out of Takoma magnet Geom, so had some groundwork for it -- it was a challenge with more Bs than As. Still loves math though. Some kids in the class were in ESs that bumped them up early, so they took Alg 2 in 8th already. Analysis (the 2nd year) isn't as intense in the breadth of coverage, but the expectations are deeper. Still more Bs than As for that.

Hope that helps. [/quote]
