Math 6 Accelerated Testing

Summer School: Math 7
Did your child pass the accelerated placement test?
To be accelerated next year, students will take Math 7 and Math 8 during the school year. An alternative: Students can take Math 7 over the summer and only need to take Math 8 next year.
This course is only available for students who passed the placement test and space is limited.
Apply for Math 7 Summer School here: https://forms.gle/8h4c6Vxa2z3BHijC6
Placement Test results have been sent to schools. Each school will decide when/how to share results with students.
A score of 60% is required to pass the placement assessment.
Prizes for taking the pretest were sent to schools and should have been given to students.
Columbus City Schools identifies Math 6 students each year who may qualify for math acceleration.
To be identified, students must have met at least one of the requirements below:
- Math 5 OST score of 4 or 5
- Math 5 OST score of 3 with an A or A- earned during Grading Period 1
- Student already taking Math 6 while in Grade 5 this year
- Student identified as gifted in Math or Superior Cog
In order for students to be successful in this program, they must possess the following qualities:
- Strong skills in math
- Good study skills/habits and attendance
- Independent thinking
- Not afraid to ask questions
- Good homework and test results
Once schools are notified of qualified students, we will also consider teacher recommendations.
Identified and recommended students will take a placement test in March to determine acceptance into the MS Accelerated Math Placement Program.

Math 7 Prep
In addition to working in their Math 6 ALEKS accounts, students may wish to work on some Math 7 content that may be tested. For this, we recommend Getting Ready For Math 7 From Khan Academy.
