[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The in-pool scores changed regularly based on testing over time, there was never a set score. Local Norms are based on the top 10% of kids at a particular school, there is nothing wrong or illegal with that. It is simply saying that advanced at each school looks different. And no student was denied services by local norms because parents can refer. They can also refer in 3rd-7th grade. [/quote] Oh please. The local norms should not have excluded kids with scores above 132, which they are currently doing. The program was designed to select students without requiring parents intervention. So all students with scores above 132 should be included, regardless of "local norms". Just because some parents prep their kids doesn't mean that all students are prepped - so students with scores above 132 should be in-pool, regardless of their base school. [/quote]
