[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] It's also not fair that a highly able learner from a high FARMS school likely doesn't have the peer group to let the teacher get through base material and enrich/cover more content, likely doesn't have the parent time/access to outside tutoring to effect the same, and likely scores lower on a measure highly reliant on exposure to material like MAP as a result. To keep the programs more concentrated, advocate for higher reliance on measures of ability vs. achievement and for guardrails against their being prone to gaming, along with a move back away from a lottery. A high-ability 99th percentile MAPer would still get in.[/quote] So MCPS places high FARMS school kids in the regional program because they do not have a local cohort. But MCPS sends a CES kid with 99th percentile to that same high FARMS school with no local cohort? How in the world is this fair? [/quote]
