| Is it an expectation all third graders passed advance in AAP |

No. It should be but it is not. |

| It is an expectation that every 3rd grader pass, whether proficient or advanced. Between 70-90% pass. That's good but still should be better. |

I am not sure what to do with my son’s SOL scores. This is the first year (3rd grade) he has taken the SOLs. The scores are good from what I can tell.
How does the school use them? What decisions, if any, will be made from them. |

If he's already in AAP, they won't be used for anything, and there are no decisions that will be made from them. If he's in gen ed, the scores might help with principal placement in a LLIV, LIII, advanced math, or the AAP application for next year. |

| For kids who are already in AAP- is the expectation that they get close to perfect score since in theory they’ve already learned 3rd grade plus a portion of the 4th grade math content in 3rd grade? SOL is new to us so not sure what the expectation should be. TIA. |

No. Pass advanced is good, pass proficient is fine. If they don't pass, I would be concerned about why. |

I don't believe that there is an expectation that the LIV kids pass advanced. The committee placed kids are not impacted one way or the other, they cannot be removed from the LIV program. The Principal Placed kids and the kids in Advanced Math probably need to have stronger scores in order to maintain their spot in the class. Our school uses the cluster method, so we don't have Principal placement. We do have Advanced Math that starts in 3rd grade. I know that SOL scores and iReady scores are part of how they determine who should be in Advanced Math. I don't pretend to know what the cut off is in order to be included in the Advanced Math group but I would guess simply pass the math SOL could be problematic. |
