[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are in AAP 6th grade now, received the same e-mail for Auto-Enrollment.We will probably just Opt Out and do Pre-Algebra Honors in 7th instead.

We even supplement with Mathnasium.  They are baffled at Mathnasium and said there is no way my kid is ready.  Also, our current math teacher said it was abad idea.

The grade they receive is supposed to count towards the HS GPA. I just think I would want to risk it in 7th grade.[/quote]
they are auto enrolling current 5th graders for algebra in 6th. it’s bonkers

How stupid. Parents should opt out en masse and end this nonsense. [/quote]

That is not going to happen. Considering the success of Algebra I pilot at our school, this was the right move. Some kids who could have handled Algebra I pilot just fine couldn’t get in because they missed the cutoff by a few points. Similar students will now have an option to opt in. There were some kids who were automatically enrolled, but either immediately opted out or dropped off later. This option is still there.

I don’t get the outcry here. No one is forcing anybody to take Algebra I in the 6th or the 7th grade. It takes two clicks to opt out.[/quote]
