[quote=Anonymous]I teach World 1 and I am also not sure why the county gave schools the choice of the SOL or the PBA for verified credit. I prefer the PBA, but it has been difficult dealing with kids who transfer mid year. I actually feel worse for the kids that go from a PBA school to a SOL school. The PBAs are so time consuming we're definitely skipping some content that will be on the SOL. I also think the county letting schools decide has created an equity issue. From what I hear the "rich" schools like McLean, Robinson, Langley etc opted for the SOL since their kids always pass it anyway. The "poor" schools like Justice, Mt. Vernon, Annandale etc. Chose the PBA because they usually have more kids fail the SOL. [/quote]
