[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The middle school our child has gotten into offers algebra in 8th grade. This seems to be standard with some other charters in the city and maybe DCPS with the exception of Deal and Basis (?). My question is, for a child who is math-inclined and above grade level, is that sufficient to be ready for application high schools/generally a college track? We are not a high-pressure family that feels it's necessary for our kid to take 15 APs or whatever, but want them to be prepared if they choose to go into a STEM field in the future. [/quote] It would be nice to have a list of the schools that offer Geometry by 8th -- Deal, BASIS, Hardy and Latin, and maybe Stuart Hobson. Any others? Your kid will be fine. However I do think offering Geo in 8th is a good indicator for middle schools. [/quote] Eliot-Hine offers geometry in 8th grade via Eastern HS[/quote]
