[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does the non magnet part of TPMS currently have the extra 8th period? [/quote] Yes. Until this year it meant double math, which was fantastic. Then without telling anyone that changed setting the scene for this change. [/quote] Not true, exactly. They eliminated the double math period for 8th graders taking Geometry 2 years ago (when my now 10th grader was in 8th). At the time they said it was to help acclimate accelerated students to the faster paced math coming in high school. On another note - it might be argued that it was senseless to give non magnet TPMS kids twice the time as other MCPS middle school kids to cover the same amount of material. [/quote]
