The 81% was her end of year grade, but her achievement and ability tests place her in the top 3 percentile of math ability.

I will find out from the Superintendent when I hear back from her if there are other (on-line, individual tutoring, etc) options.

I don't know what the issues are.....the only one articulated is that the 8th graders classrooms are in a seperate hallway from the 7th graders and that the 7th and 8th grade lunch periods are different. I guess it boils down to logistics for the school at the expense of the student.
