If she has had all the math and science

prerequisites, it doesn't matter what grade she is in when she takes it. My son took it in 10th grade with the seniors, but was a couple years ahead of his grade in math and science classes. His teacher also just gave them the work,and they were pretty much on their own. My son reads math and physics books for fun, so he was all right, but he had some seniors asking him for help throughout the year.
If this is her first year of high school, that's probably stressing her out too. She may want to wait till next year or later to take it until she is more comfortable with the high school routine.

Do the math
State (where I went to school) required 180 days of school.
365-180 = 185 days of no school. Factor in the extra hours a teacher has to spend on planning, conferences, meetings, etc and how many DAYS does that eat into the day off pool? For the amount of time they put in all YEAR, they get paid pretty darn well.
Do you do math?
I said my son was 8 years older. I did not say he was home alone at 8 years. When my daughter, younger, started school he was 8 years older, let me see that is say maybe 5 and 8- MY GOSH, that makes him 13 YEARS OLD.
Scuse me? May want to do that math again.
And I love where you say *my children are goats*. lol
So true, spelling and math.
Wanna have a laugh, when at a store if the amount is something like 12.56 give the young clerk a twenty and a nickel and a penny and see the puzzled look you get. Then when they put the amount into the ''computer'' and see you will get 2 quarters back they are like OH! okay. This is our future generation. It is scary.
Tried, failed in math so could not figure, only do spelling!

I don't like Science Diet
either. I try to read the ingredients on pet foods when deciding which ones to buy, and it seems like Science Diet is full of by-products and useless stuff. So why when I go to the vets does he prescribe my cat Science Diet for UTI?? Do they not know what foods are good and which ones aren't. And I'm sure if I asked the vet which food to put my new puppy on, he would probably say Science Diet. I've been buying Royal Canin for my dogs, but now with the recall, don't know if I trust them either.
we still have it but i think it's now called "consumer science"
used to be economics now it's science - wow
i'm only down on home ec because a long time ago i worked with a former home ec teacher who somehow lost her job as a teacher and she was a total b*tch
My mom donated her body to science - sm
so we had nothing. She did not want us to do anything. We did mail a note to all my parents friends, etc. letting them know she had died, etc. but that was the extent of it. I said "goodbye" to my mom in the hospital morgue. They gave me a very hard time about it and did not want to let me but I insisted, explaining we were not having a funeral, etc. Took them an hour to arrange it once they finally agreed to let me see her. My brother and dad went with me, though I would have rather been alone. My dad already said his goodbyes in the room as did my brother. I drove up 4 hours so I could that night. My other brother did not make it though. His wife I think is the only one that has had a problem with the fact that there was no funeral or memorial service. We all just took things from the house that reminded us of mom and I think that helped. I have my mom's old recliner and I sit in it sometimes and talk to her. Plus when we get together we openly talk about mom and past events, etc., even my dad does despite his re-marriage and I know he is very happy in his marriage. But all in all we have all been fine with it, I think it helps to know my mom hated funerals, was not that religious, and we honored her wishes.
I was an animal science major in college and...
my poultry professor said that fresher eggs are harder to peel. The problem is that you can't tell from the store which the older eggs are because when they expire, they just repackage them with newer dates and send them back out because they only go bad if there is a defect in the shell.
I posted this below. It is not envy, it is rocket science!
There is an algorithmic formula for how many responses to a post before the conversation deteriorates. So next time you feel free to be me, realize you were just sucked in to a math equation
i find the science in the Bible pretty tangible,
ie, that this world is a sphere, suspended in heaven (vs. flat), about the paths/currents under the sea, and more -- these were written WAYYYYYY before 'man' discovered same. Those are tangible facts or science. However, science nowadays isn't necessarily fact -- too much theory purported as science...
Laughing, HARD! Looks like a science experiment...I VOLUNTEER!

You're confusing Scientology with Christian Science Church.sm
The Church of Christ, Scientist, believers do not generally utilize medicine or doctors. This is a completely different entity than the Church of Scientology, which is what the Travoltas belong to. Scientologists use medical drugs when physically ill and also rely on the advice and treatment of medical doctors. But, as Tom Cruise made us all aware, they don't believe in the use of psychotrophic meds.
