Just a grumble here.
Our middle school operates on a 6-day cycle, which I think means that classes not offered every day are offered on different days of the week in different weeks. Sounds confusing to me. Our high school operates on an n-day schedule where n /= 6. When I last asked about accelerating our eldest son in math by having him take classes in the high school, they said that the different cycles at the middle school and high school make that impossible. Although I think if that obstacle were removed they would come up with another.
When I went to public junior high school in the early 1980s, I was transported by bus to the high school to take 1st period math. Schools are getting more real per-student spending now than then, but even simple accomodations seem to have become less doable.
