[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The issue is that not all students should take math at an accelerated and honors level. That is why the school has three levels of math courses. Parents cannot except that their child is perhaps not capable to succeed in the highest levels so they want the school to water down the honors level program. [/quote] Hmm. Also, many (not all) of the better performing math students have had outside supplementing in math for years before US starts. That might be AoPS, Kumon, Mathnasium, or RSM. That race for the advanced math track starts in LS, although most people will not admit it in any public setting. [Tip - Look for the P sticker (or the equivalent stickers for GDS, Sidwell, StA/NCS, and others) on the cars in the various parking lots.][/quote]
