[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What an embarrassment. 9/10 HS students can't even meet the baseline math expectations? [/quote]

This is not true. My 10th grader didn’t take PARCC because he is was in AP stats. and got a 5 on his AP test. There are plenty of kids who are advanced in math and don’t take PARCC. Your numbers are wrong.[/quote]

Thinking that perhaps you could learn a thing or two from your 10th grader who took AP stats.[/quote]

Wow so rude. Look at the PARCC spreadsheets on the OSSE website and you'll see that lots of kids don't take any math PARCC test at all. They only test certain classes. I wish we had more comprehensive data and I'm sad that we don't, but it's simply not true that 9/10 kids are failing math. It's more like 6/10.[/quote]

But the attrition level at highschool also may have to do with kids simply not showing up for school. I don't make assumptions that it's just the smart kids dropping PARCC in highschool.

Nonetheless, looking at the trajectory from elemetary school and middle school, it's probably closer to 8/10 or worse. It middle school, it's already 8/10 score 3 or below with most kids taking the test.[/quote]

Well yes, teenagers can be like that. But really, it's not an assumption that PARCC only tests Algebra I, Algebra II, and Geometry. That is just how it is. It's not an assumption. You can look at the OSSE spreadsheet if you want to see precisely how many and what grade level kids took each test. Also, control for grade level. If a 9th grader, say, took Algebra I in 8th grade, so takes Algebra II in 9th but has an off day and only gets a 3, that's not great, but it's also not the case that they're below their grade level. They would only be below grade level if they got a 3 in Algebra I, not Algebra II. See?
