The Commitment
1. The student must desire to be challenged. To be truly challenged, one must expect to stumble along the way.
2. This is a 3 year commitment. Taking Algebra I in 7th grade sets your student’s math classes for grade 8 and grade 9. The only exit point from this path would be during the 7th grade.

HS Courses Taken in Middle SchoolCourses will be listed on the high school transcript—
with credit and grade factored into GPATo decline the credits, an Informed Consent Form must
be signed by the parentThe Informed Consent Form will be available to parents
in the fall of the freshman year and can be signed at any time during high school
When opting-out of the credits, both semesters of the course must be declined
When declining credits, students may move on to the next course in the sequence; however, the student will most likely need to fulfill additional credits for graduation in that area (this will be explained in detail on the Informed Consent Form)
