[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]And I don't understand what you're saying. Are you saying that currently, if your child in third grade is reading at (for example) the first-grade level, then the state standardized test your child takes for reading, for the NCLB requirements, is the first-grade test? There isn't a first-grade test. [/quote] There are exemptions in NCLB for special needs kids--at least in Virginia.[/quote] Right, there are exemptions in NCLB for special needs kids. Switching from the MSA to the PARCC (in Maryland, which did adopt the Common Core standards) is not going to change this provision of federal law.[/quote]
