[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In elementary school if you have advanced math groups in private school then it upsets too many parents when their children aren't chosen for the program. It because a political landmine. So the easiest thing to do is not to accelerate math. Then new students are admitted in 7th grade and 9th grade primarily. It looks bad when incoming students are placed on a much higher math track because their public schools allowed acceleration. So private schools make it difficult for these entering students to accelerate. [/quote] That’s an excellent point and something that has caused infinite drama at our school, along with some dramatic exits of lifers the summer before 7th grade.[/quote]
