We only have this years scores. Last year was the first year they sent them home at our school. DS is in 4th grade.

Our second grader applying for AAP got 95th in both this year. Last year he had 98 math, 99 reading in fall, 97 math, 99 reading in spring.

In K he had 95, 92 pre pandemic.

We got them in the mail last year.

Still, our school won't place him in the gifted program, because his verbal scores are around the 75%. So freaking annoyed! They let him sit in the classroom bored out of his mind but have a pullout program for kids who scored lower than him on both tests. We do Beast Academy at home now, so whatever. He'll continue to outscore the gifted kids and the school will do nothing for him.

Welcome to FCPS where an IQ test in second grade determines whether or not you are allowed to take advanced classes.

If he scored a 75% in verbal then he belongs in Advanced Math not Level IV. If your school starts Advanced Math in 3rd grade, I would talk to the Teacher about his being placed in Advanced Math. If it starts in 5th, then I would be talking tot he Teacher now. He will probably need to score Advanced Pass on the SOL as well as do well on the iReady and CogAT.

Gifted kids are not getting 75% in verbal. FCPS does not have a gifted program but a kid with a 75% in the verbal is not going to be considered gifted.

If a kid is 98th percentile in math, they are not being well served in a gen ed classroom for math.

Which is why the should be in Advanced Math, when it is offered at their school. You can be in Advanced Math without being in Level IV.

Unless you are a third or fourth grader in a school where it isn't offered. In a school where it is offered, they jump ahead a little each year to the point where 5th graders skip the 6th grade SOL. Starting advanced math at 5th sounds like a recipe for failure.

Perhaps but the child's scores do not call for Level IV services. There is more the Level IV then the math. The child's scores indicate that they would struggle with the LA component.

I think every school should start Advanced Math in 3rd grade but that doesn't mean that you push kids into Level IV who are not ready for the entire program. The child in question is clearly advanced in math but not LA. The child should start Advanced Math when their school offers Advanced math.

Iready looks at what your child has learned. Cognitive achievement tests look at what a child hasn’t learned yet but how they can take information and reason.
Neither tests look at a child’s work ethic, attention issues, or any other cognitive behaviors. One test or one number is never a measure of any of us.

Your weight is only a number.
Your age.
Your income.

None of us would want to be judge by one of these only.

For those who weren’t given the scores. Have your child log into i-Ready and go to reading or math ‘completed’ tasks or lessons. The diagnostic score is listed if you scroll to the bottom.

You can re-test and reapply every year.

iReady is a crock of shit. My daughter clicks through and got horrible ready scores. I spoke with her teacher, the reading specialist, and the math specialist and they all said that her actual performance is significantly better than iReady.
