Irena, can you ask what the screen is?
Our elementary school used screening tests at the beginning of each year, sometimes at the beginning of units, that were created by teachers and covered the specific curriculum that would be taught. Our kids' middle school is using math assessments for placement at the beginning of each year that come with the specific math curriculum they use.
I'm so glad to hear your ds' school year is going well - YAY!!!
Best wishes,

The letter did say short "standardized" test. I could ask but I know they prefer not to say ... It didn't seem worth looking like a crazy tiger mom who'll make him prep for the next week or so. He's a strong math student so I'm sure if accelerated is right for him hell be fine.... But I am curious - and slightly concerned, I guess. I don't know ... Do you guys think I should just ask so we have an idea of what he'll face? Usually I don't care how Iook to the school lol! Not sure why I do now!
