[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wish we are participating it.  My kid is qualified based on the information here. I think it's not fair to be offered only few schools. [/quote]

During today's webinar, they said 11 schools are piloting the program.  So it's very limited.[/quote]

11 schools with 500 kids? That’s a lot of kids for each school.  [/quote]

Who told you there are 500 kids. There will be only about 15 in each class[/quote]

There was an email from fcps board member.

“Piloting Algebra 1 Honors in sixth grade: FCPS will begin offering Algebra 1 Honors to sixth-grade students who have demonstrated readiness for advanced math. Selection will be based on passing the Math 6 SOL at an advanced level and an 1125Q quantile score on iReady assessment. This initiative will increase the number of students accessing Algebra 1 Honors from 25-30 to approximately 500 students, while giving families the option to opt-out their student.”[/quote]
