[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your child is in second grade and you are already convinced they are gifted enough and driven enough that they [i]need[/i] to skip three years of math, that the typical path for acceleration [i]definitely[/i] won't meet their needs. It is a [i]tragedy[/i] they did not score high enough to prove this, an injustice, no, the [i]test[/i] must be wrong! I'm sure you will tell us all about how [i]they[/i] are pushing for this, the child is just super self motivated and ravenous to do more and more advanced math and you are only trying to support their passion. 140 is a hard cap. The county doesn't budge on it even with teacher recommendations. Your kid does not need to skip three years of math. I promise.[/quote] The three year reference assumes a kid take Algebra 1 in 9th grade. The majority of kids take Algebra 1 by 8th grade in DMV and many Math 8 topics are covered in earlier years. So "skip three years of math" is an overstatement. [/quote] Do you have a source for this? [/quote]
