DD won't be skipping a year in math - she skipped algebra in 7th grade. She will take Advanced Algebra (Algebra II) this year followed by Pre-Calc her sophomore year and AP Calc her junior year. We don't know yet what will happen her senior year but we know we have some options. We don't want her to test out of Advanced Algebra, nor do we think she could test out of it, we just want her to take it this year while also being able to take Spanish and band.
She needs two years of foreign language and Spanish is the only option. It would be nice to have the option to take four years of Spanish if she likes it.
She is at the top of her class at this point and, while grades and g.p.a. are obviously important, they are not our main concern and we would prefer that she be challenged and learn things and not get a 4.0 without working for it.
