[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Different language offered, maybe?

Math curriculum not fully built out so if you have an advanced kid, review it carefully.[/quote]

Can you tell me more about this, or direct me to more info? Have a 4th grader and am thinking about playing the lottery. Math is important.[/quote]

When I went to an open house last year at Cooper, they had basically nothing to say about kids who are advanced in math. No explanation of when Algebra I is offered and things like that. It's not clear to me whether the math offerings at Cooper in middle and high school will be the same as at 2nd. I plan to ask that question as we re-apply this year.[/quote]

They told Cooper parents last spring that differentiation in math will happen starting in 7th grade, based on math MAP score at the end of 6th. I believe you can skip one or two years ahead, if you qualify through MAP and also if the kid is on board (especially as skipping two years ahead is a high school level class). I don't know what happened with last year's 6th graders, though. [/quote]

What is the MAP? Is it like the PARCC or what is the difference?[/quote]

It's a test that's used as a benchmark in many schools (including I believe elementary schools?). You can Google it. At Cooper they take it three times, in fall, before holiday break, and in the spring, close to end of the school year. (There is also an ELA MAP.) [/quote]
