[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]agreed. this was by no means well publicized since we have spent the past week sleuthing out whether this was even the case that all schools would have their own set of norms, no district wide standard.

if someone can find the doc that says that, please post here and enlighten us.[/quote]

Maybe it's my poor reading comprehension, but until people started reporting scores that were over 132 but not in-pool I read the above to say this year would be a continuation of last year only at all schools. Basically there would be the 132 OR the local norm, not exclusively the local norm. The above doc is NOT clear. I mean, doesn't this read like just an extension of last year's pilot:

[quote]For the pilot, local building norms were approved for use in schools that already had level IV services available
as of SY 2021-22, thus the new local building norms process was piloted in 105 schools. Local norms were not
used at 34 schools.[/quote]

That doc was never in an email from FCPS. It was never in an email from schools (unless someone can say they got it). It was not shared by AARTs or teachers. AARTs tended to give vague or even wrong descriptions of the scores for the pool this year based on reports from this board.[/quote]
