[quote=Anonymous]Have you looked into online high school classes? Perhaps he could take Alg 2 over the summer in one of those and transfer the credit, which would then allow him to take Precalc during junior year. I sympathize because DD was stuck with an awful Alg 2 teacher who gave extremely long exams that the class couldn't finish. She fell to a 90 when she had always been a great math student. Now, a year later, she's pulling high 90s again in Precalc and she just scored an 800 on her math SAT. It was a real struggle last year and she was discouraged for a time. He'll be fine though. If he stays and gets a somewhat lower grade but then does well next year, colleges may see it as one bad course. The damage may be limited. Have him review on Khan Academy over the summer or even pre-study a bit for Precalc in order to increase the chances that he does well in that. Good luck to him![/quote]
