Mathematics Placement

Placement

We believe in placing your child in a math class that will allow them to find success and enjoy mathematics. All placements are conducted at the end of the school year based upon the student's performance from the full Year. In order to maintain a current level of placement, students must maintain a final grade of A and/or B in the present course.
