Math acceleration information meeting at Tomahawk Middle – Wednesday, 2/15/12 at 6:30 p.m. This is a change from what I’ve had previously posted. I apologize for the confusion.


If your child qualified for two-year math acceleration next year, and you have any questions about this decision for your child, please do not hesitate to contact me for input. We met with Manchester Middle School teachers yesterday, and they shared the following recommendations about this decision.


Does your child:
1. possess a high level of motivation?
2. demonstrate excellent work and study habits?
3. enjoy and seek challenges in mathematics?
4. have passion for the study of mathematical concepts?
5. persevere when faced with difficult challenges?
6. seek a deeper understanding of the principles of mathematics?


If your child does not display most of these factors, one-year acceleration may be a better option, even if he/she qualified for two-year acceleration. Please consider attending the math meeting at Tomahawk Middle School on 2/15/12 for additional information as well.
