[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How rigorous are grade level standards? If my kid is at grade level, is that in comparison to DC or the country? Is grade level enough? How high are the standards? [/quote] Yes, most of the markers they use are nationally normed. If they say your child's reading level is M, ask what that standard is so you can look it up. If they say math scores are X, ask what test was used, so you can look that up, and they will answer your question. They only make 'grade level" comments when there is data to back that up, so that is based on some test, and you will be able to look up that test and see how it is normed.[/quote]
