[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pretty sure the math tracking at [b]St. Albans is similar except they just ask you to skip algebra II to get to Linear algebra.[/b] I don’t think the Holton curriculum is as outside the norm as people are implying of basic math gets you to calculus.[/quote] There are only 1-2 kids per year who skip Algebra 2; the others (another tiny group) come in at 9th, having been accelerated at another school prior to high school. [/quote] And now, in the current freshmen class, all the girls in integrated math (at least 10 from Holton middle school) are on that same track that will put you in multilinear calc. [/quote] There's only 7 girls in integrated math, according to my DD. The point of it is so the kids who went to Holton MS get a chance to catch back up. Provided they are motivated and have a good foundation.[/quote]
