^^It can’t be just the middle/high schools that are “elite,” @ucbalumnus . It has to start earlier than that or the kids wouldn’t be prepared. Every district in the area where my kids grew up started kids in algebra 1 in 8th grade. The slower kids got extra help, but they still took it. Maybe it’s a MA or a New England thing in general? I know of three families who moved to other parts of the country (AZ and FL) and found that their kids were well ahead.
