[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Counts of Grade 9 students taking a Geometry class at TJ for the past 5 years. 2017-18: 10 2018-19: 20 2019-20: 15 2020-21: 11 2021-22: 136[/quote] The solution is to require geometry as a prerequisite to apply. The problem with that is that anyone is supposed to be able to apply, but Algebra in 7th is limited to kids who were in advanced math in 6th and did well enough on the SOL/IAAT. Personally I would require geometry to apply and allow anyone to register for Algebra in 7th with the clear understanding that the course would pace the same way it always had and that teachers would be free to fail kids who can't keep up and refuse to transfer out.
