[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How does this really breakdown, we need to know how many kids entered already scoring high and where did they end up. If you entered middle school as a high elementary school scoring child, then how does that reflect on the middle school - only that they didn't make your scores worse. If on the other hand you entered the school as a low student but left as a high-scorning student, then kudos to the school. The only way this matters is we follow the child, and for parent making a decision about where to send their child, not because the teachers are any better but the kids in general are at a higher-level!!! SIGH  :roll:  :roll:  :roll:  :roll: [/quote]

This has been tracked for charters - called the median growth percentage and you can find it on the DCPCSB website for each school that's been open long enough. It is an important data point in determining whether a charter is Tier 1, 2 or 3. But they will need to start over again with PARCC and have a couple years with this test to get updated data.

I believe DCPS tracks it too but not sure where to find it and if it is called the same thing. [/quote]
