This is a few years back, but, my DS told everyone he "didn't like" math before he attended the HGC. At the HGC, during the 4th grade he
went from what was then considered one year ahead to two years ahead but he still "didn't like" math. So when they asked if he could be moved
to three years ahead, we said no. He has held that against us ever since and will be graduating from the Blair magnet in 2017.
How is this responsive to the question?

My child is in the HGC right now and also in compacted math, but there are a few kids in her class who are not in compacted math and go to another classroom for math, and some other kids at the school who are not in the HGC come to the HGC teacher for compacted math. It does not seem like a big deal for any of the kids.

Subject: Regular Math at the HGC?
Does anyone have experience with a child who attended regular math with the home school at the HGC (rather than 4/5 and 5/6 math)? What was the experience like for your child? Would you do it again? Thanks in advance!
