[quote=Anonymous][quote]A school's test scores look better if the school reduces the performance of high-performing students? Nope, that doesn't make sense.[/quote] In these cases. it does. The PARCC science test would not go into AP level. The scores are gated by a ceiling so any students learning above the ceiling doesn't improve or change the score. If that student is in general education and get the top level of the test (not what other kids are learning in an AP class) then it absolutely raises the scores. In addition, its expected that AP students receive high scores on standardized tests. If students in general ed receive high scores then it makes the school look like its doing a great job. [/quote]
