[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just received a phone call from the principal of Colvin Run ES, who said they will be organizing another “test” next Tuesday to assess how prepared each student is. I’m not sure how the results of this test will affect the eligibility decision. My child has already received a letter stating that he has been selected. While I believe that taking Algebra 1H in 6th grade is unnecessary—and perhaps a bit excessive—what worries me more is how he might feel about himself if he opts out of an advanced program in which more than half of his classmates are participating. [/quote] Whoa…someone’s going to get in trouble when higher ups find out about that. Whether it’s a good idea or not, schools have been told this is the threshold, you can’t change it.[/quote] In a separate email, it was stated that the eligibility decision wouldn't change. I think there are too many students (30+) to handle. [/quote]
