[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For the more experienced parents, please help a newbie mom understand what is the sequence of math courses in FCPS if a student starts with Algebra 1 in 6th grade - if the student is STEM bound in college?

| Grade | Course                                                              |
| -----   | ------------------------------------------------------- |
| 6       | Algebra 1 (Honors)                                             |
| 7       | Geometry (Honors)                                            |
| 8       | Algebra 2 (Honors)                                             |
| 9       | Precalculus (Honors)                                           |
| 10     | AP Calculus BC                                                   |
| 11     | Multivariable Calculus + Linear Algebra                 |
| 12     | AP Statistics + advanced electives (CS / ?) |

Kids at TJ will have additional options. It could be that 12th grade math space could be used for an AP Computer Science or Science, like AP Physics C. Or they are going to need to add additional math classes for kids to take because very few students have been on this path before. And it could be that some HS have more options then others because you end up with more kids in their feeder ES taking A1H as 6th grade so there is a larger demand.[/quote]

What happened to AP Precalc (AB or BC)? [/quote]
That's the 9th grade year, no? Most schools do AP precalc, but i think some still do regular[/quote]

Yeah, but it says Precalc Honors not AP. Currently, there is AP Precalc AB and AP Precalc BC. I would think the kids would take one of those to get to AP Calc (as is the current requirement). [/quote]

I don't believe every school is offering AP Precalc. This is the first year Robinson is doing so, and they are only offering AB.[/quote]
