[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not OP but we encountered this at SJC and they didn't budge on placement. They also did not allow for a retake then or at the end of the summer. If you don't make the Geometry cutoff for the summer you are SOL. You have no options to take it on your own and test out, etc. Its a bad system which leaves capable kids behind. We are currently stuck in it and assessing how much of an overall impact we think it will have. I do believe there is another opportunity to test into a summer program between 11th and 12th but thats pretty darn late.[/quote] But was it the wrong placement? Did the student actually know the material for the assessment? [/quote] Hard to know. A in 8th grade Algebra 1 and 4 on the DC PARCC but not a good test at SJC. I don't have issue with the retake as much as with the lack of ability to move up a level. [/quote]
