[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think anyone skips Algebra. I think it means instead of enriched IM the child is placed in an Algebra 1 class with 8th graders (who are also taking Algebra 1). But I am not PP[/quote] Correct. And I don't think it's all that uncommon per se, they just didn't seem to have enough 6th and 7th graders in that group to create their own class. There is also also mixed 6, 7, and 8th graders in all of the electives. All of which may be fine in theory, but when you are adding new incoming magnet 6th graders (who do not know anyone), with established, 8th graders it creates social tension. I do hope the program is great for most students, it just wasn't a fit for my daughter, despite her personal art focus. [/quote]
