[quote=Anonymous]This is what happens when a school offers no acceleration in math in MS. Because everyone takes Algebra I over two years — including the kids who needed more challenge, and the kids for whom Algebra in MS was too much — the kids needing challenge find themselves matched with the kids who need the most help, with the idea that it averages out the learning. Yes, a high-achieving math kid can play catch up in US. But don’t ignore the damage that two years of boredom in extended Algebra I does to a kid who loves math. [/quote]
