[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I worry about the emotional well being of kids who, as sixth graders, are forced to travel to a middle school during the day to study algebra, commute as eighth graders back and forth from a high school every day for precalculus and can't study with their high school peers either but have to drive to a college several days a week from grade 11 on for who knows what variant of advanced algebra. Acceleration by three years (which is what taking algebra in sixth grade is) can turn into a 7 year sacrifice. It's worth it for a very very select few but makes no sense for most.[/quote]

This isn't true in FCPS.  Many of the middle schools have an Algebra II class.  Most of the high schools have Multivariable Calc and Linear Algebra after BC Calc.  Kids would only be on the hook for 6th grade and 12th grade.  [/quote]

This isn't true in FCPS. Our FCPS middle school doesn't offer precalculus or Algebra 2 and our FCPS high school doesn't offer the upper level math courses you mentioned. Oops.[/quote]
