[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My oldest child in in geometry in 9th (he was in accelerated math in ES but the teacher recommended 6+ in 6th grade because of some learning issues. My current 6th grader is finishing AIM and we’ve made the decision to put him in 7+ next year after seeing too many of older DS’s friends struggling in Algebra this year. Your on level ES kid will have opportunities to get on a more advanced path in MS with 6+. Algebra in 8th used to be the advanced path in MCPS and it still is in most of the country. There’s no reason to push kids into a path that has them taking calculus in 11th grade unless they’re looking to get into very selective STEM programs in college. [/quote]

News flash: kids are even taking the AP version of Calculus titled AP BC Calc in 10th grade. This IS Montgomery County Public Schools, formerly one of the best now just the largest school district in MD.[/quote]

If you have an MCPS education, then yes I'm convinced its terrible. [/quote]
