[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Counts of Grade 9 students taking a Geometry class at TJ for the past 5 years.

TJ generally covers all of Algebra II in a single semester.  How will that work for all of these kids who weren't good enough at math to qualify for Algebra in 7th grade?  Will they create a new Algebra II track that spans a full year to accommodate all of the kids who've already demonstrated that they aren't particularly good at math, or will they force them to take a class that will be too fast for them?[/quote]

If these numbers are accurate TJ is going to become two separate schools within a school. DD can have this situation at her base school. [/quote]

I don't have direct knowledge, but I think these numbers were obtained thru FOIA. [/quote]

Those students will end up taking calc ab in their senior year being unable to take any post ap courses, any advanced math classes and many research opportunities. Too bad they didn't benefit from what TJ has to offer and ruined their GPA.[/quote]
