[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This year hasn’t been great for us. My kid did fine in the pandemic because we heavily supplemented. That meant DC was above grade level this year, especially considering learning loss in the pandemic. Result has been that DC is not progressing at all this year—scores are actually down from last year. Basically kids above grade level are ignored in class. The one exception is compacted math.

I would stay in private if you can afford it. [/quote]
You are assuming that advanced kids are taught above grade level
At private when that is not always the case. So much depends on the private and public options in question. [/quote]

We tried to switch to private for this year for MS.  The ones with openings/would consider our child (or questionable openings where they might have some if they want your child) could not do the same math track and we'd have to pay extra for it or get a tutor/outside class.  They start Algebra much later.[/quote]
