Students seeking to enter Algebra 1 as an 8th grader after the completion of Math 7 may do so by meeting the placement protocol as shown below or by completing a request for placement form.  In each case, it is highly recommended that students complete the PVPUSD Bridge to Algebra 1 Independent Study Course.  

 

The Bridge to Algebra 1 Independent Study Course was created to support student success in Algebra 1.  The Bridge to Algebra 1 material is intended to provide support to students currently enrolled in Math 7 who have received the school recommendation for placement in Algebra 1 or have completed a Request for Placement Form.  Material presented in this independent study course will cover the additional content taught in the Math 7/8 Accelerated course that is not covered in the Math 7 course.  For students who completed the Math 7/8 Accelerated course, the bridge materials will be review should you choose to use them.
