[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is the first of a series of detailed school by school (and cluster by cluster) breakdown of MCPS test scores from 2017-2021.

For this one looking at middle school geometry, the results are pretty devastating with huge drops in proficiency across the board.

“All schools showed a dramatic decrease in proficiency

There was a 62.4% average decrease across the 38 schools reporting data in 2021. Decreases ranged from the best – 44.6% fewer proficient students at Francis Scott Key Middle to the worst – 82.2% fewer proficient students at Shady Grove Middle.

8 schools (21%) had decreases between 44.6 and 50%.
20 schools (53%) had decreases between 50 and 75%.
10 schools (26%) had decreases of 70% or more.”

Most students have no business taking geometry in middle school, and a lot should be taking Algebra I in 9th, too. There shouldn’t be such a rush. Lots of talented kids thinking they’re terrible at math because they’re struggling in precalc in 9th or 10th grade.

But students went from a 95 in some schools to an 8. You completely missed the point.[/quote]
