To DCPS yes, but not to every school.  Times are changing.  At Brent's PTA meeting last week, the principal announced that, as of the fall, upper grades math classes will all be held at the same times during the week, enabling a 3rd grader who can handle 4th grade math to "loop up" a grade, or even two grades.  Also, 5th graders who can handle 6th grade math will now work with their own teacher, even if there are only a few kids being pulled out.  The six-figure PTA is paying for the pullout instruction.

I'm sure the math at BASIS is wonderful, just not sold a a middle school without outdoor space, a gym, a stage, real sports teams, decent art room, band/orchestra....

Lack of those facilities describes just about every charter in the city, along with a few DCPS schools as well.[/quote]

I agree that the facilities at most DC MS are not up to PP's high standards. Also want to know where you are going to then send your advanced math scholar after Brent? VA for TJ? MoCO? [/quote]
