[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] OP, I would think very hard about math track for your kid. While B is a good grade overall, do you really think DC is capable of handling Algebra II in 8th grade and Pre-Calc in 9th? Talk to your kid, and maybe chancellor, think hard if DC is really ready for heavy math track in HS. It might be just a hiccup and stupid mistake on the test, or early indication that, well, he's moving to fast, and simply not ready. [/quote] I agree. What does your child think? I wouldn't make it about the particular grade, but about the level of challenge in general--the math is only going to get harder. It's possible that your child feels too far accelerated and would welcome a respite. Or, it's possible that the B will be a wake-up call and lead to more studying. Only your child and you know![/quote]
