This is a good point, mainly because many curriculums are ultra basic through elementary school and then add on the challenging math in jr. high/high school as totally new concepts--others integrate basic algebra, geometry concepts, etc. from the first grade.
Most curriculums line out in the end, meaning if you use it 1st - 12th, the child will still know what he/she needs to know by the time they graduate. But if you compare to public school curriculum, they can be ahead or behind at any given point. (Behind and ahead being relative concepts.)
