The FFX county school system is telling me that there is no way that he can take Geometry in 7th grade next year; that they will not permit him to take the Algebra SOL to demonstrate that he has mastered the material. Does anyone have any suggestions about how to encourage the school to let him take geometry if he has mastered algebra or am I simply going to have to give up the school system and pay for him to do geometry/algebra 2 studies outside of school? thanks.



[list]Why do you want him to skip Algebra 2 Honors?? Is he asking for this or WTF??


I think the student will be signing up for 8th grade classes soon as this was posted last year.


Oh Geez...In that case he/she is probably in college level already!

For anyone whose DC have taken algebra in 6th grade, did they take the IOWA test in 5th grade?

Is this a joke?
A percentile score of 4 means that he did worse than 96% of the kids who took the test.


Yes I think it's a troll. I remember answering a similar post in another similar thread with your exact answer.
Troll, make fun of pushy immigrant parents all you want. Your kids will probably be working for their kids someday...


[list]Ya know the whole "troll" accusations are getting old - just ignore them for gods sake.

Contact the AAP central office staff and they should be able to put you in touch with the right people to help get your son placed appropriately.

there are a few AAP 6th graders at our school who have taken algebra at the closest MS all year. I have heard they will take geometry next year, but they already took the MS class in algebra. is that what you are talking about?

Any idea about Loudoun County Public School?

I know they have a Iowa Pre-Algebra Aptitude Test for 5th grader. what about Iowa Algebra Aptitude Test?
