please check right away with your own county’s school board of ed. it sounds like different counties/states have different policies! our county defintely counts all high school courses towards your high school gpa and class rank. i checked this out before i let my kids take any and warned the kids about this so they could really concentrate on those classes in middle school that ‘counted’. i looked on their website and also had them send me an email answering my question so i could get it straight. its important to one of my kids since he is aiming for selective schools to get an A on all 5 of the high school classes he took in middle school. other kids found that they did quite poorly in their middle school algebra I class. they figured they could just re take it in high school. true but the school averaged the 2 grades…just contact your own district for policies and dont take this forum’s word for it…
