[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At the TJ school preview for newly admitted students/parents this past spring there were parents at the currently taking Algebra I/Algebra II math track table asking about how to get out of the AP Calculus requirement and wondering why students need to take more math at TJ 🤦♀️.[/quote] Algebra 1 I can see asking that question, the kids don't have the same exposure to advanced math and might be coming from schools and families were the idea of taking calculus seems like a stretch. Algebra II kids in 8th grade should be aiming for more advanced math, unless they saw the acceleration as a reason to get their 4 years of mandatory math in and then drop math altogether, but those are not the families I would expect to apply to TJ. Hopefully they heard the answer was no, it is a requirement and chose to stay at their base schools. It sounds like maybe not. [/quote]
