[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s true. There are 75 8th graders taking Geometry at our high farms MS. My current 5th grade will not have that path available to her, even though my 8th grader did.[/quote]

do you have a source for that claim? [/quote]

Yeah, my kids Geomtery teacher. She is the only Geometry teacher and teaches 3 sections of 25 each. I then asked the MS guidance department what was the highest math[b] my [/b]5th grader could take and they said Foundations of Algebra. Which is a prerequisite for Pre Algebra. Which is a pre requisite for Algebra. So IF they don’t eliminate any more options, [b]my[/b] youngest can take Algebra as an 8th grader. But I will not be surprised if that changes by spring. If you don’t believe me look at the 2021-2022 LCPS program of studies and find the page for middle school math.

I’m not lying. This is real and I’ve been saying it for a year.[/quote]

Are you sure that they weren't telling you the path YOUR child could take and not the highest path available? [/quote]

Yes, I specially asked what was the highest level available. They will no longer offer pre algebra to 6th graders starting next year.[/quote]
