[quote=Anonymous]The kids are learning algebra with tutors in 5th grade and not retaining it. They just aren’t. It’s not really the point of the tutoring. The point is to make kid look advanced for school placement. They will relearn it again in school but will never be as engaged with the proper instruction in school as they would have been without tutoring. This is done in FCPS specifically to be one of the handful chosen to skip into algebra in 6th. If not 6th, 7th. It’s entirely parent driven. I’m laughing at the thought of a child wanting to learn “next year’s curriculum this year after school!” AOPS and RSM are doing this under the guise of enrichment. Parents talk and spread info about which schools are doing this and they move to where they are accepted. I’ve also seen the actual test used being passed around. It’s mostly Asian but also white families. If you sit outside a tutoring center all the info is shared. I’ve said this before. The tutoring center is just the gateway. I’ve met more tutors with inside knowledge in those waiting rooms.  [/quote]
