[quote=Anonymous]We had a similar issue coming from a public to a private. My kid was placed in a lower level math after the placement test, despite excellent grades and the recommendation from then current teacher. We met with the math department dean who assured us it was the right level and we accepted that response. Within the first few weeks of school, the new school's math teacher quickly identified that my kid should be in a higher math level and kid was switched. He has been happily and appropriately challenged in the more advanced class. I'd reach out to the math department dean and talk about options. Maybe it is the right level. Is there room at the beginning of the year to move up if not? What does your kids' current math teacher say? It is probably easier to move up if it's not the right level, versus moving down. [/quote]
