[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From the article: [quote]"Test scores — without additional context and balance — are not a reliable predictor of future success," the complaint reads. "On information and belief, FCPS has never been able to produce longitudinal data supporting the myth that test scores have predictive value."[/quote] Test scores are not a good predictor of success in life. But math test scores are probably a pretty good predictor of success in math classes for which the skills and concepts tested are necessary prerequisites. And not that want to have LESS focus on those math scores, when increasing numbers of students are unprepared for their TJ math classes. Good grief. [/quote] Those tests are biased against blacks and people for whom English is a second language, doncha know?[/quote]
