[quote=Anonymous]My child took honors algebra in 7th grade and did well (final grade was an A). DC had scored in 99th percentile on IAAT and pass advanced SOL in 6th grade. DC is taking honors geometry in 8th grade and continues to maintain an A average. I know many kids who are doing the same thing and are doing well. It is not some huge disaster to take honors algebra in 7th grade barring exceptional circumstances. There certainly are plenty of kids who can handle it. My child is not really a math/science type and ultimately chose not to apply to TJ but nonetheless enjoys math and welcomed the challenge of taking algebra in 7th grade. We did not push it but largely left the choice up to DC (after meeting with 6th grade teacher to see if teacher felt there was any reason we should not allow DC to take algebra as a 7th grader.)[/quote]
