[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our MCPS high school told us at last night’s PTA meeting that this school year 2021-2022 is the last year students have to only participate in MCAP but not have to pass. Next school year 2022-2023 returns to normal pre-Covid MCAP graduation requirements.[/quote]

I'm the mother of a freshman so can you tell me more?
What are the MCAP graduation requirements?[/quote]

All I know is it's a new test that the state just made up a year or two ago, and 90% of the kids fail it. The test they were using previously was used nationally and had more like a 70% pass rate.[/quote]

And the pandemic hit, with MCPS being the last district to open in the second-to-last state to reopen schools. Pearson creates both the PARCC and the MCAP; MCAP is a shorter test, but otherwise very similar. [/quote]

That first year it was still PARCC and the bad results did not coincide with virtual. Further, studies showed schools that opened had comparable learning loss to those that chose to keep students and teachers safe during the deadly pandemic. [/quote]
