[quote=Anonymous]Anecdotal only. My 8th grader was GE in 6th. Did very well in math and on math SOL. Parents were highly discouraged at MS curriculum session to take math 7 HN as it was “basically math 8 and skipped a year.” I didn’t want kid worried (has school anxiety) so signed kid up for math 7. Kid did well and had high SOL. Kid chose to sign up for Algebra 1 HN in 8th. Kid is doing well, has A currently. It’s definitely more challenging than math before, but kid is self starter and putting forth strong effort. If kid didn’t have own motivation to take and also study, I would have not agreed to it. Aside, kid is also taking HN science. Kid says HN science in 8th grade is much more challenging than HN science 7. It is kid’s hardest class. But, we get to listen to this, so that is always fun: https://youtu.be/VgVQKCcfwnU Kid is trying to memorize it. It takes us down the animaniacs rabbit hole, which is never a bad thing: https://youtu.be/szgdem7EIn4 [/quote]
