[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Different public school systems have different "normal" definitions for a math curriculum. Even within FCPS, in practice some FCPS schools have a de facto "normal" that is ahead or behind other schools in FCPS. [/quote] +1 to this. At our MS about 20% of kids were double accelerated, though if you were one of them you'd largely been with accelerated kids since 2nd grade so it might seem like a lot more. Another 30% were single accelerated, which is Algebra 1 in 8th, which to most strivers in DC seems "normal." But if you look you realize it's not - the regular math track is actually what's normal.[/quote]
