[quote=Anonymous]What were the exact qualifications? If your child was placed based on "being good at math" but not a comprehensive pre-algebra test, then that means that they think your child is able to learn the material.. but it was never taught. So your child might need to do extra work at home to fill it in. This is a common problem when schools have kids jump from a lower track to higher track after testing, especially after a "summer slide", instead of accelerating smoothly from the beginning over several years. But, it's only been 2 weeks. Not a lot of material yet. What are the particular complaints? Is it really from material or is it the teacher or the school or higher expectations for working at homework? It's possible that your kid is ready for algebra, and ready for their other classes, but isn't ready to do all them at the same time, so they have to choose where to advance and where to fall back.
