[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]6th grade AAP teacher here. If your child scored 91 percent or higher and is getting all 4’s on their report card, they should take Algebra. If they scored 91 percent or higher but is getting mostly 3’s in 7th grade math, they should take 7th Grade Honors because there may be gaps. I have students who scored well on IOWA but are not getting all 4’s on 7th grade content.  I will say the majority of the kids who did do well, I expected to. There were a couple of surprises. If you are unsure, ask your child’s teacher what they think. [/quote]

What if a child is getting all 4s on 7th grade content, advanced pass SOLs but missed the 91 cutoff by a few percentage points? DC didn’t have any prep and had an issue with time. [/quote]

So if they scored a 90 and pass adv on the SOL they can appeal. Anything less than a 90, most middle schools won’t budge. I have a couple of stydents who scored in the high 80’s but get all 4’s. Unfortunately, they are probably stuck taking 7H next year. I will say this. Parents need to think towards high school when making a decision. [/quote]
