[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid is in AAP but she is much more of a humanities kid so we opted for Honors Math & vs. Algebra I. She said it was super easy and just a review of what she learned in advanced math in 6th. I think Algebra I in 7th makes sense for kids who really have a natural aptitude for math. I've heard from teachers that a lot of kids who were pushed into Algebra I in 7th go on to struggle in higher level maths in HS. I don't think advanced math in FCPS is that great in ES-they focus on acceleration vs. depth. [/quote] Another parent here who wishes the push was for more foundation and not acceleration. At least there are options to elect in and out. Would be sad if kids locked in to you are STEM and you are not at age 12.[/quote]
