[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would love to see the prescribed methodology for determining ON vs. ABV for reading level. Seems like there are a lot of kids mis-evaluated, like yours may have been. And ABV is a central criterion for the magnet pool. Yes. There are many, many more MCPS students who would benefit from enrichment than are provided it, to speak nothing of the paucity of magnet seats. They could go back to rank-ordering selectees for that so that those with greatest ability/need are offered (they aren't going to), but that would still leave multiples more above the bar representing qualification/need than land in the magnet programs.[/quote] I believe it's based on Dibels data? It's not a great evaluative tool because it's timed and your kid could have a bad 5 minutes or something or get flustered. My kid got a bad score on the timed nonsenses word fluency test in the fall but scored well in other areas. In the middle of the year she did much better[/quote]
