[quote=Anonymous]I'm PP with the eye-roller, and yes, it's likely that even CM is too easy for him and he needs more than the county is willing to give. I fought for him (even testifying at BOE) in the earlier grades when they first eliminated acceleration and then finally gave up. He did, too. He's at HGC, and his math class is another really large one (nearly 30). It was actually the class he complained the most about last year (too loud, unruly, class was behind, etc.). I offered to let him work independently at home, but he's now afraid of going ahead of school and being even more bored there. It's really sad that MCPS doesn't find a systematic way to engage kids like him so that they don't get turned off. Fingers crossed that he gets into the Takoma magnet and math improves in middle school.[/quote]
