[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My now junior had a C in the first quarter that he brought up and I think had an A for the second semester. He then dropped down to on level for pre calculus and now has a much more solid foundation for calculus. Slowing down from honors to on level worked out really well.[/quote] A parent of a senior told me that the school is trying to weed out so more kids drop to regular level next year. She said the vast majority of kids bomb the first quarter and I would guess even more so because most 9th graders learned Algebra I though zoom school. My child is doing even worse than OP’s and so we’re looking at tutoring.[/quote] The PP is right. We have a tutor who is a former HS math teacher and it's a combo of 1) trying to weed kids out, especially if the class is too large and 2) scaring the bejesus out of them, as they all come from MS with no expectation of hard work and no understanding of how to study.
