all of them.

Name the school. I doubt you have been to all high SES schools in DCPS

Do you actually believe there has been no learning loss at all levels? It's obvious to everyone except you, apparently. I forget, which is it -- are we supposed to stop talking about "learning loss" because it's discouraging, or are we denying that there is any learning loss?

I see. You can’t show DCPS data so you are extrapolating from random blogs.

McKinsey represents the for profit education industry so they have a commercial angle. Could be a fine blog but they do have other motives

We are questioning that any DCPS school showed you data to this affect.

And that any comparison of years is flawed esp if the tests were done online

Who is "we"? And why do you doubt this? And yeah, it's hard to accurately assess in DL. That's one of many reasons why DL is so terrible. If it weren't so terrible then it wouldn't be a big deal to do the assessments. But anyway, many of the assessments like Iready are online anyway even in school, so I'm not sure that the comparison is so flawed. You seem to have some kind of agenda to keep people from talking about the learning loss cause by DL. Wonder what that is.

oh ffs. I can see with my own eyes that my DS has lost ground. We can all see it. Only you can't see it.

And again no one here knows your darling son.

My darling son would be doing a lot of things better too. But pandemic so he didn’t get to hug grandma foe a year but she didn’t die

"There was a claim a SCHOOL released data and it made a mom sad. Which school? Which data?"

Why do you think you have the right to know this? This is an anonymous message board. People have reasons for not wanting to divulge identifying details. I wouldn't tell you my kid's name or his school. You seem to think this is a clever tactic to prove that people talking about learning loss are lying.

[Anonymous]

Um no one is asking your precious son’s name....
To ask the name of a school is completely reasonable. Pp doesn’t want to share it because then we could fact check it and call bs. Just like the other thread about Friday off for Teacher Appreciation....maybe it’s the same poster lol

Oh god this is so annoying. DC put out a study in December: https://www.empowerk12.org/research-source/covid-impact-achievement-dc

Note, the DCist article linked above describes this study and LINKS to it.

Next on deck: PP declaring that all DC data collected is wrong.

Please read the methodology section before you spout off on how the data can't be comparable by year.

Still not data sent by a school.

Where is the data from a school?

Yes if you don’t provide that you were lying in your original post to prove a point.

Anonymous wrote:Totally new poster here, but I will say that our school has indicated substantial concern about K/1 literacy and 3/4/5 math results on the MOY assessments. For K/1, they actually reached out to certain families to re-administer in person in case the technology was the issue (it wasn't or at least not all of it), and for 3rd grade, they actually changed the normal school day structure/content to try to cram in extra directed math work.

Your DCPS? That's good to hear. At least they're being honest and proactive about it. For my 3rd grader, it is totally obvious that he has lost ground in writing and not learned as much math as he would have in a normal year. Social skills, even worse. However, when I think about if this had been his K or 1st grade year, I literally get palpitations. Those years are so, so important -- you really have to be delusion to think that DL hasn't had a huge, negative impact on basic literacy all over DC.

Yes, our IB DCPS (very diverse; non-T1). They did not share the data itself with the school community (although they did share 3rd grade data with 3rd grade parents in a meeting to explain the restructuring), but were open about the results and the fact that it guided their summer school programming decisions.

I mean, I’m not the PP. obviously DCPS data shows there is learning loss. Why is it pertinent that a school is named? Her point holds with the wider data. Do you not believe learning loss is happening in DCPS?

Where do your children of child go to school?

No on is saying there is no LL saying your school didn’t present you their school’s data. It’s the same thing as teacher taking off for teacher appreciation day. That isn’t what happened so why the hyperbole to make your point.

Still haven’t seen the school that presented the data

And btw it will be fine if your child isn’t reading by first grade. These milestones were made up to begin w
