[quote=Anonymous]We just retained a college counselor this past month for my oldest and I have a younger child taking Alg I HN in elementary school. The counselor noted unequivocally that the right track for kids is to take Alg 1 (HS level) in 6th grade. He said most international kids applying to the top colleges in the US are on that track and that most international primary education covers Alg. No idea if this is accurate but not sure why he would make that up (it's a well reputed college counseling firm). I think there is probably a reason why FCPS is pushing this out so early and while I agree that it should have been better planned and prepped, perhaps that is a learning lesson for the team at Gatehouse for next year and beyond.
