[quote=Anonymous]I didn't read all the other comments, but here are my thoughts: Is your 7th grader in a 7-8 MS? If so, it's easy to blame Alg I for the anxiety. But transitioning schools is anxiety inducing. I would absolutely reach out to the teacher and see what they are seeing and call the counselor and see when in the drop deadline. If your kid is in a 6-8 MS, then it probably is Alg I specifically. I would feel more comfortable pulling the plug sooner in that case. I had a 7th grader who was moved from 7HN to AlgI in the first week of school last year. She failed the first two tests. It was the best thing for her since it showed her that the pressure was coming from herself (not me and her dad) and it taught her study skills that she hadn't learned before since everything came easily before. She finished with an A-. She also had an amazing teacher who did an amazing job explaining concepts to her and showing her how to practice outside of class. [/quote]
