[quote=Anonymous]33 is not "passing." The IAAT is an algebra aptitude test . It is meant to assess the student's readiness for algebra concepts, nothing more. Math 6/7 in LCPS is pre-algebra, so 33 is set as the benchmark, meaning that a student who scored 33 or above in 5th grade is ready for pre-algebra concepts and likely will be successful in Math 6/7 in 6th grade, and from there Algebra I in 7th. But algebra skills are developmental, and a kid who isn't ready for Algebra in 7th grade may very well excel in Algebra in 8th grade and go on to a very successful math progression in high school. With a 47 on the IAAT in 5th grade, your child is likely well suited for the accelerated Math 6/7 and then Algebra in 7th grade. [/quote]
