[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP here, but interested in this topic. DC in 7th is struggling but hanging on in Algebra. Is there a point where students 'back off' this track? Or it is just a given that all but the best math minds will have a tutor? It seems like once you're on the accelerated track, it's very hard to change without repeating a year (like Geometry, as noted above). [/quote] My kid struggled a bit. We don't believe in hiring tutors; if he can't do the work, then he shouldn't be in the class. That being said, he had a great teacher who would answer questions during lunch and with that extra time to check in with his teacher, his grades went back up. There were just a few units where it took longer to "click." I would chat with the teacher and see what he/she thinks. [/quote]
