[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The inconsistency across elementary and middle schools is annoying. Luckily it all evens out in HS. Kids that got bussed around to be a year ahead and those advanced students who did not have that opportunity all ended up in the SAME classes. As other parents of older kids have said, there is no reason kids need to take Algebra in 6th grade. It works out fine to take it in 7th. It’s fine. Relax and think ahead. [/quote] Some years our school has Algebra 2, other years not. I hope they will do it virtually vs. sending kids to the high school. My child is on this track. I don't see any advantage beyond child wanted to do it to avoid another year of doing the strategies and really boring math. They wanted more concrete math. Taking Algebra in 7th is still really really early compared to privates and other school systems. Often it is not till 8/9th.[/quote]
