[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I heard that it's because they don't want kids to compare. No idea if that's true, and it seems simple enough to advice parents not share scores with their kids until school is out, if ever.

If your kid didn't retake the SOL, either they passed or they failed and got a score so low that the school didn't think it was worth doing remediation and trying again. I imagine that most parents have a sense of which category their kid fits into, so at least you can go on that. [/quote]

I don't think it's because they don't want the kids to compare.  The kids compare every test, assignment, grade, etc.  I think it's because they don't want parents to hassle teachers at the end of the school year.  [/quote]

I'll add that I don't think it's unreasonable for them to hold the tests until the last day of school.  [/quote]

But the question is why FCPS post the scores early and APS delay? Wouldn't same concerns apply across? [/quote]

Years ago, APS said they only post them after they have been "verified." Peraps FCPS doesn't wait for that?[/quote]
