[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it true that your enrolled school knows if you’re playing the lottery (I.e., considering leaving)?

If so that’s pretty lousy, as it could leave school administrators with the feeling that your family is not totally invested in staying.[/quote]

They know and and it does lack or investment. Also, administrators have eyes on local forums (Facebook groups, etc.) and they watch your school inquiries and “crossing fingers for a a good number.” School choice is school choice. But it doesn’t go unnoticed.[/quote]

Funny I asked this last year and got the  - they do not care answer.[/quote]

Well of course they're going to say that.  But they do-- especially if you are in PTO leadership or your child scores 5s/is obviously bright.[/quote]

Totally agree here.[/quote]

there hasn't been a PARCC test administered in 3 years.  Plus they really do not care.  At All.[/quote]

They totally do care if they are trying to get their numbers up, or if they will have to hire or lay off a teacher because of it.[/quote]

You really don't understand how the PARCC scores were used.  Forget that there is no current data.  No one gets hired or fired over PARCC scores[/quote]

No, teachers get hired or fired based on enrollment.  If a ton of students leave, or a ton of students want to enter, they may have to make a hiring decision.  It's not based on PARCC.

But they do care if their high performers leave, even without PARCC they can tell by iready or just generally smartness of kid.[/quote]
