[quote=Anonymous]Dominion Christian uses Singapore Math variant Math in Focus for K-6 and, for Geometry, Jacobs' (supplemented by selections from Euclid's elements -- it's classical, after all.) It's a small school, so their primary acceleration is moving kids up a grade level. Standard track has kids taking Algebra in 8th. Math was not the driver behind our switch to here, but it's been good so far for our high-math-stats kids. Ad Fontes, somewhat south of your target range, is the only school I know of in the area that uses honest-to-gosh Singapore Math, in this case Standards Ed, which is very close to my favorite curriculum for most kids (SM US Ed.) Not sure about Ideaventions' math curriculum, but they have an exceptional track record, so presumably they are doing something right. It is a tiny school that only takes high stats kids; over the past couple of years, half their graduates have been National Merit Semi-Finalists.[/quote]
