I guess it depends on if you want high school credit for that course? Otherwise you could wait until the beginning of next year when they readminister.


+1 Yeah, we're going to strike while the iron is hot. Our DC feels ready and will definitely go in to take the SOL for Algebra I. I think it is in June? And then again in July/August and the Fall. The practice tests at the VDOE website were really helpful in affirming DC's decision.

I agree but didn't they get that with the MAP testing (at least for ES)? ACPS needs to be held accountable but I'm not willing to subject my kid to unneeded pressure and anxiety.
