[quote=Anonymous]Like it or not, J-R is moving toward an academy tracking system. (I don’t like it and I encourage parents to push back against this.) But if they keep going down the path the school is taking about this year, t is going to be increasingly difficult to get some of the more popular electives (like engineering and computer science) if you aren’t in the academy - and then they are trying to force the students to take all of the courses in that pathway. I think it’s absurd to ask 8th graders to basically select a minor for HS, but that’s what is happening. So, while you push back on this, I encourage all 8th graders to sign up for an academy if you think you might be interested in the electives in that academy. [/quote]
