[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To recap: 8th grade Algebra is 1 year of math acceleration, 8th grade Geometry is 2 years, AA is 3 years. A small number of students and Deal (and Basis) do 3 years of middle school math acceleration. Amplify science is research-based, widely used by a very large number of school districts and not unique to DCPS. Is there something better out there? maybe. but its not a very good data point for arguing why dcps is uniquely terrible. reading full books at a decent clip is important. at least some dcps middle school classes do this. [/quote] For any college bound kid, 8th grade Algebra is not accelerated. That gets you to Cal at 12th. This is standard, basic and the minimum. This is standard in schools around the DMV. 8th grade geometry is 1 year advance. [/quote]
