[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Geometry was pitched as "we will have it if your kid needs it, but based on test scores there's no one who currently needs it." There is a push for 7th graders to take Algebra this year though so that they'll be ready for 8th grade. [quote=Anonymous]The geometry thing is to my understanding still on the table. Possibly for some of next year's 7th graders or the the year after to begin taking algebra so that they can take geometry in 8th. In previous years they didn't have the capacity to offer this, but it may be possible in the future.[/quote][/quote] Yeah... That's not a good sign. The only way they're going to have geometry is if they re-think the sequence so that more kids are ready. And stop the attrition of high scoring math kids in the first place. I asked the HOS and got a pretty dismissive answer that it's for outlier kids. But... That's the kid I have.[/quote]
