We do allow kids to take Alg 1 in middle school and progress to Alg 2 as freshmen in high school, but they do not get credit toward graduation. Yes, they offer honors for all levels and then AP for calculus. BUT, with DS9 entering middle school next year, they say he's ready for Alg 2. (Complication is his brother DS11 is also ready for Alg 2). As it stands now, they would have to repeat Alg 2 in High school (we're trying to negotiate an assessment that would give them credit toward graduation). Plus the middle school is trying to come up with a course. Plus DS9 presumably could get through pre-calc in middle school and without credit, how would he graduate?
Always something to add wrinkles to my face...
