Perfect SOL?

Goggle says used to be more common - more rare now.

I imagine a better Google search would give you state wide numbers

Surely this data is pre-dumbing down, yes?

I think they said they were going to do that this year. Someone can probably find a link about it but I don’t have time right now.

So did my non AAP kid.


Yep, they are common. My DC was in AAP at center and had kids in his class fail the SOL.

VDOE d not change any of the SOLs. They are the same as if we didn't have a pandemic.

I stand corrected. They did not change the test. But they changed what you need to pass. Pre pandemic you needed 400 to pass. This year you need 350 to pass.

True and does not relate to scoring a perfect score.

I checked my kids SIS account and it does not list his SOL score. He is in third, so this is his first year taking the tests, any idea when we should expect to see the score?

That might be true of some tests, but not all. Middle school reading SOLs still require a 400 to pass.

We usually get them with end of year report cards.

Thank you. I have been reading how people are finding them on the SIS page and I am curious. I can be patient. Maybe. Probably not. I suck at being patient....

It’s pretty common. It’s not a hard assessment really.

The 350 is NOT the pass rate for this year. It is still 400. They're using the 350 score for high school (and MS math) students ONLY to allow them to get verified credit for their course.

Thanks - the person who told me was a MS math teacher. But does it even matter if you “pass” the others - except for the ones where they lowered it to 350?

In high school math classes it is common, in both gen ed and honors. SOLs are minimum level competency tests and many teachers teach to the test.

I’m happy when one of my children just passed. My other child has never scored a 600. But many of my students have and I have quite a few every year.
