[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Great, so they might add a math class, and they might not.  What happens when they plan to add the class, whoops, but most of the kids who were supposed to populate it get off various wait lists (BASIS, Washington Latin, Stuart Hobson, private schools) over the summer and don't show up for 6th grade?  The class is canceled and your kid takes the same math class they had a year or two earlier?  As for English classes, so Jefferson might require your advanced kid to read and extra book or two, while other students in the class are being taught to read at grade level (or one or two years below grade level).  Forgive me for being rude, but the arrangement doesn't inspire confidence in this Brent upper grades mom.

You realize that at Latin or Basis they will be in every class with kids not at grade level too - except math.

You realize that Latin is majority white/high SES, and BASIS is nearly majority white/high SES (and getting more white/high SES with every passing school year).
