[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Will your private middle school have the kid on track to take advantage of stem offerings? If you want to take advantage of the math offerings, Algebra will have to be taken in 7th at the latest. [/quote] I had no idea - that’s really good to know. She’s young, but is super interested in design and engineering so far, so yeah, I think a heavier focus on STEM would be of interest to her. We’re looking at moving her to SAES, which looks like it offers algebra in 7th or 8th. I appreciate that call out.[/quote] Algebra in 8th is standard. Algebra in 7th is what I refer to as “standard advanced” for the greater DC area, given the number of kids, particularly in private schools, who are a year ahead in math curriculum. Then there’s a solid contingent of more advanced kids who are in geometry or even higher by 7th. [/quote]
