[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My current 8th grader didn't have the option of a language in sixth grade and took reading (in addition to English)--which took a lot of time with busy-work.  I would strongly favor starting a language. My rising sixth grader has the option of language but according to the materials they sent home, she seems only to have the option for the year-long 1a class (not 1a in fall and 1b in spring, as the older took in seventh/eight grade).  Unless they start offering 1b as a fall class for seventh graders (seems doubtful), she seems to end up the same place the older one ended up-- taking 2a and 2b in eight grade.  Maybe they will clarify at the parent meeting, but this doesn't seem like progress...  [/quote]
What school is this? At DD's MS, she and most of her friends are taking a world language in 6th grade. And the school does not offer the option of a full year 1a course. So they are all taking 1a/1/b in 6th grade. And no one has to go to the high school for level 3 as a PP suggested. It is taught at the middle school.[/quote]
