[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here are the proficiency results for high school.  It looks like Walls (a selective school that only accepts students with an A average GPA) has slightly pulled ahead of BASIS DC (a 100% lottery school).

Walls

ELA 94.66
Math 67.44

BASIS DC

ELA 92.06
Math 66.12

Banneker

ELA 88.62
Math 44.52

Latin

ELA 70.71
Math 30.47

DCI

ELA 41.87
Math 20.74

This is high school?  Why is DCI so bad?[/quote]

[b]There's a lot more than meets the eye with high school math PARCC scores[/b]. Analyze with caution.[/quote]

When there's room on the margins maybe. But those scores just empirically stink.[/quote]

Well, yes, they aren't very good. But for the higher-performing high schools, so many students have progressed beyond Algebra I, Algebra II, and Geometry, that it just isn't that helpful a data set. If School A were crushing School B in pre-calc or Calc A/B or whatever, wouldn't you want to include that in your analysis? But we just don't have that.[/quote]

I don't pretend to understand the math/algebra/geometry PARCC data. And lord knows OSSE seems to have made it even harder to grasp WTF is all means with this year's data dump. But your explanation doesn't track. If that was the reason for low test scores then it should similarly impact all other schools. I mean, I assume you aren't suggesting that DCI's students are more advanced than BASIS, Walls  and Banneker?[/quote]
