[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi All-OP here. Teacher came back and told us that there is a cutoff. Only students with MAP scores of 240 or up were recommended. My child was 5 points below the cutoff. Do you all have the same cutoff at your school?[/quote] No clue on what our MS does. If you think DC can handle IM and won't be upset if a change is moved, put the child in IM. In most MS the child can switch from IM to Math 6. It's harder to switch from Math 6 to IM. If you think your child will be stressed in IM or will be demoralized if moved from IM to Math 6 mid year, then consider Math 6. We had two children go through MCPS. One did Algebra in 6th and the other did Algebra in 8th. Both have888888done very well. It's about doing the best thing for the particular child. [/quote]
