I almost wrote *worst WOTR. No matter how you slice it and no matter how much money the families foolishly raise on a sinking school, the scores are horrible. Full stop. I have no idea why they aren't being considered for closure. They literally do not have enough money to fund this current school year. You can't fundraise that shortage. |

Sp why does all that, assuming it's actually true(?) make you happy enough to post a grinny face? Are you some kind of ghoul? |

The grin face was that they still attract white hippies (or yippies as another PP pointed out). I personally find it comical that they are considered "highly regarded" with certain parents. If the school had the demographics of Noyes with everything else being the same, people wouldn't look twice at them. They don't even outperform DC averages. It's actually so sad that I find it comical - you know laugh to keep from crying that there are so many of my white neighbors that only ascribe to a school for it's demographics despite being a failure in every single measure. |

3rd grade ELA scores at CMI last year were 21.1%
Schools that had higher scores than CMI are: Leckie Browne Bridges Center City Simon Burrville Cooke Burroughs Friendship Democracy Prep Rocketship Bethune Cleveland Noyes King DC Scholars Beers Friendship Chamberlain Meridian Sela Harmony Center City Brightwood Friendship SE Tubman Thomson Ingenuity Prep City Arts Early Childhood PCS Brightwood Truesdell +other top charter and DCPS Why is it you think white families continue to list CMI in their top 12 as a "HRCS"? To put in perspective with other HRCSs ITS - 65.3% KIPP - 51.9% LAMB - 45.7% YY 44.3% |

| PP- -that is stark. CMI families, have they done any messaging on why-test-scores? |

I think their financial picture is more frightening than test scores. If CMI were a stock, any smart person would be selling, selling, selling. |

The families there will tell you they like that CMI doesn't "teach to the test." The same families will tell you their IB schools were "not an option" because they lack a "cohort of high-performing peers." What they don't realize is that if they went back to their IB schools, their kids might get the remediation they need. I don't love PARCC and think some of its questions are confusing, but a kid who scores 4s is going to be better at math and reading than a kid who scores 2s, and I do care if kids learn how to read and do math. |

I don't understand why you think its ok to insult groups of people. This is never ok. I don't care what color you are, or how much money you do or do not have. |

This is the point. CMI doesn't have high performing peers. There are more high-performing peers at Noyes, Leckie, Beers, Houston, King, and Brightwood than at CMI. PP can blame me all she wants for calling names but the fact of the matter is there are CMI parents that are willingly letting their kids stay in a very low performing school for access to white/rich peers. |

Can you link to this data? I just went to the link below and it says 12% of Noyes students were level 4-5 (proficient or above proficient, I believe?) on the 2018 ELA PARCC. (Noyes is our in bound, and when I looked at the standardized scores a year or two ago, I recall thinking that only 10% of students tested were proficient or above.) https://dcps.dc.gov/sites/default/files/dc/sites/dcps/release_content/attachments/2018%20DCPS%20PARCC%20Results%20Deck.pdf Not that test scores are everything -- and they are less relevant to preschool and early elementary -- but I would like to get the numbers right. |

11:54 here -- I think I see it:
https://osse.dc.gov/page/2017-18-parcc-results-and-resources Go to the link above and you can see separate spreadsheets for ELA and Math PARCC data for every school. You can look by grade or overall. Overall, Noyes had 15.2% level 4/5 on ELA. CMI had 30.2%. If you look just at grade 3, Noyes was 26.1% and CMI was 21.1%. CMI's scores vacillate a lot -- as low as 17.1% for ELA proficiency in 6th grade to 47.2% in 4th. Could be a variety of reasons for that. Math scores look better for CMI. TLDR: you can drill down on the data from the link earlier in this post, but I think the posted I quoted above is cherry picking ELA on one specific year, which doesn't give you a fair picture of anything. |
