[quote=Anonymous]It sounds like he shouldn't be an engineer if math isn't his thing.. A lot of young people don't really know what's involved in a career. He won't get great support at an mcps high school and you should be.prepared for that. Honors classes are really on-grade level in MCPS- so these may be safe for him to do. I would not do any AP classes in 9th grade. I have a gifted, neurotypical son and the executive functioning demands are significant-- AP history was a fair amount of work for him. I have a bright ADHD child and I put her in somewhat lower classes than her ability and she is shining- it allows us to have the bandwidth to work on her weaker skills and her executive functioning.
