[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] No, of course it's not mentioned as an option. It's not an option for most students EVEN the most wonderful math students.[/quote] If I thought that it was in the best interests of my child to be in Algebra in 6th grade, I would start by marshal my reasons* and evidence and asking for a conference with the teacher who teaches my child math. *the reasons would not include "My child's life will be ruined without three AP math classes in high school".[/quote] OP here. This is exactly my concern - I don't want to "ruin" HS by setting my child up for that much advanced math later on. Is it really necessary? I'm not sure, which is why I asked this question. And for all you skeptics out there - yes, it's being offered to my child under 2.0, without a fight, and without any pressure on our part whatsoever. [/quote]
