[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The experience and the outcome depends on the kid... 
Our DC is very good at math. this year he is in 6th grade and is finishing Algebra 1. He found the class fun and interesting. Most of his friends were 7th graders from that class. This is one class were he felt most like himself. He got a solid A. For context... He has always had very high MAP-M scores. This the spring he got over 280.[/quote]

Our MS simply said that 6th graders can only be in AMP6+ or AMP7+, even though my (current) 5th grader's last MAP-M score was 266.[/quote]

This is the problem we are having too. But AIM is the only option for highly abled students who going to be bored in the class room. I am worried that DC is going to refuse to go to school if they do not provide sufficient challenge.[/quote]

I should clarify, they did recommend my son for AMP7+, I was just surprised at the no AIM option, since I thought AIM also had some other enrichment. He does RSM as well, so I'm not too concerned about it, though it's a bit unfortunate that there are fewer options available in public school.[/quote]

What is RSM? [/quote]
