[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parents of a MacArthur freshman here. My son loves the school. The staff and the administrators are amazing. My son was recommended to do AP pre-calculus because they reviewed his transcript and he already had algebra two in eighth grade and he has been getting straight A’s in his current algebra two class now I was a little annoyed that they did not view his transcript, but I was happy to see that once they acknowledged that they immediately switched his classes. Yes there have been fights. Yes, some children may be a little rowdy but it’s a public school. I see the same thing Deal and JR. The homecoming dance just happened. It was very successful at this school. I feel like my son would get the real high school experience. I am very pleased with the school and I recommend it to anybody.[/quote]

Where did he go to middle school that he did algebra II in 8th grade?

Either BASIS or Deal.[/quote]

DCI also but class is not called Algebra II.  It is IB and math courses are integrated.  In the highest track, it gets you to AP Calculus by 10th.[/quote]

PP said pre calculus in 9th - so that means algebra in 6th, no? [/quote]

If your traditional sequence is Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra II, then yes.

At DCI the math courses are not compartmentalized like above.  It is integrated math and includes both algebra and geometry in middle school.[/quote]
