[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is definitely posted now under “course requests”. There were the two options last week—- pre algebra and math 6. Now it’s just down to one. I’m super happy for my kid— he is not a math genius but he’s smart and interested. [/quote]

Yes we have courses listed here too.  I was wondering if the math one would stay (currently says pre-algebra). I am assuming it's the rec the ES pushed to the MS.  [/quote]
Math placement isn't done by the elementary school.  It comes out of Syphax/central APS admin.[/quote]

Ok.  So I guess central office put it there.  Don't the ES give recommendations?  Or are the placements all from test scores?  [/quote]
Last year the consensus was that placements were purely from test scores.

I think the course request form is controlled by the MS, but could be wrong. My guess is that Syphax already sent a preliminary list of math placements to the MS so they could start scheduling and working on teacher course assignments.   The official placement letters should be coming soon.[/quote]
