You can see the 'top' schools (% students scoring 4s and 5s)

Click on the ELA column to see that list ranked by ELA; click math to see if that way.

So besides Mann and Banneker not much to see here, clearly most children at DCPS are NOT getting 4s and 5s.

About 1/4 of Mann students are advanced on ELA and 1/5 advanced in math. About 3/5 on level in ELA & math and about 1/5 below grade level in each. It's a school with a 3% FARM rate.

You guys, PARCC is supposed to be tough-- that's the point. Go compare the scores with MoCo schools.

JKLMM DCPS elementary schools blew their MoCo counterparts out of the water. Just take a look at Woodacres, Westbrook etc.

system-wide 5% advanced on ELA and 3% on math according to OSSE site. Out of roughly 47K students that breaks down to 2.3K advanced ELA and 1.4K advanced math across all levels.

Yes, I also care, because I'm no Einstein nor rich and figured that best I can do is to surround him with high achievers. Well, at least I thought the high achievers will be in that school. We moved IBwhen he was a baby, got in through the pk4 lottery and he has been there ever since. His grades are ok- lots of 3s and Ds for developing, but got those 5s on Parcc. He is just regular slaking kid who does bare minimum on his homework and the teachers graded him accordingly. Parcc however shows that he does pay attention at school or maybe Parcc is easy.

With so many highly educated parents in the mix, including SAHMs with multiple graduate degrees, au pairs, tutors, weekend and summer enrichment camps etc., the DCPS curriculum clearly isn't hard enough for many kids. The schools homegrown, PTA funded GT programs help, but not enough.

Mann has the highest elementary ELA scores - 23% got 5s (2016) and 19% got 5s in math.

Lafayette had the highest elementary math scores - 22% got 5s and 11% got 5s in ELA.

Do those schools do a lot of teaching to the test?

No more than any others. They may be the top scorers, but most of the other JKLM schools were in the same ballpark and should be grouped together.

I'll ask again, do they do a lot of teaching to the test? My child's school does not do any teaching to the test. Does Mann?

PP. ... and of course many of 47K are 2nd grade and below and not factored into parcc results

Oh, FFS, "sheesh" back to you. No they don't ask follow the same curriculum. Where do you get that from?! I don't think all DCPS follow the same curriculum and charters certainly don't.

"All follow" not ask.

Yes, DCPS schools do. The schools have some flexibility on how they follow it, but they do all hit the same things.
