[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would say the kids are overtested, and they know these tests are meaningless.  It doesn't count in their GPA, doesn't go on their college transcripts, doesn't count for placement anywhere, etc..  Our kids have enough to worry about, and are gaming the system to get what they want/need, and PARCC gets them nothing.

And for those holier-than-thou who think their little snowflakes would never do something like that, you are wrong.[/quote]

As of 2016-2017 passing the Algebra PARCC is a graduation requirement in Maryland, so it's not meaningless.[/quote]

Truth. The Maryland Dept of Ed is requiring certain scores (depending on what year your child is tested) on the algebra PARCC as high school graduation requirement. Here's the info:

725 in 2016 - 2017
733 in 2017 - 2018
741 in 2018 - 2019
750 in 2019 - 2020

Does anyone really think MCPS will stick to their guns with this once it's realized that there's a significant "gap" along racial lines?[/quote]
