[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you mean your child is testing lower in the new school or the school is testing lower?[/quote] Not OP but remember that each State has their own test and test system. DC's policy has been to up the ante on test requirements. So you'd probably see DC test results over all lower than MD tests also for that reason. But I think MD has more stringent tests than VA, which recently adjusted its requirements resulting in a (statistically induced) "drop" in test scores. It's really impossible to rely on standardized test scores across states to draw conclusions about school quality. A much more reliable way would be to stay in touch with former classmates and compare notes.[/quote]
