[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] [b]Did you know that some fcps middle schools offer algebra 2 and some don't? That's why fcps would bus to a high school for it, to prevent discrimination. Not to cater to whims. Your Chinese class analogy is not on point. [/b] [Report Post] Yes I did. But offering Algebra II in middle schools is a relatively new development and something that should never have started in the first place, imo and the opinion of many math teachers I know. The high school ridiculousness arose out of that. And what you consider a "whim" others might consider a necessity. My kids are actually more likely to use their Chinese after school and in their eventual careers than any advanced math that they take, but I don't expect the school system to do backflips to accommodate them. [/quote] I drove my DS to high school to take Geometry since it wasn't available at his middle school so why should that not be an option? Is it only ok for your son to exhaust all math courses at the high school and take additional courses above high school and not other kids? If high school should be for high school students only according to your logic, then college should be for college students only as well.[/quote]
