[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well I promise to do my best to remember to come back in a year. So far he is doing really well. He scored well on the MAP and on the 8th grade VGA so hopefully no issue! He is really enjoying the pace of the class and actually told me it's one of his favorite classes because people actually do the work.

For what it's worth I know a handful of folks who requested placement for their kids and all are  doing well in intensified geometry now and encouraged me to request his placement (he was just under the cut off). [/quote]

This was my kid too (did great & said algebra in 7th was his favorite class because of the quick pace & the teacher actually teaching them stuff)… he didn’t make the test score cut-off. We had to fight to get him in that class, and it was absolutely the right decision.

To the other PP, way more than 1% of kids belong in advanced/accelerated math. It’s good to have options. I don’t think your doom & gloom statements about high school math bear out, but perhaps you can show some solid dating showing otherwise?[/quote]
