[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't understand the PARCC and never well. 
I have a rising 6th grader who scored high 5, 99% for ELA.  The kid hasn't read a book outside of a school assignment since 2nd grade.  Not one.  His writing is atrocious.  
This is the second time this has happened.  
He's bright and gets As but being the among the top ELA students at his (upper class) school?  LOL.   No.

Meanwhile, my rising-6th grade Eastern magnet student, with high-99th percentile MAP and Cogat scores and a 1400+ Lexile level, scored just above the cutoff for "proficient" in ELA this year, barely a 4.

But her math, which is usually a good bit lower than her English scores on standardized tests, was a mid/high-5.

So either she fell asleep then suddenly had a burst of mathematical inspiration, or these tests are crap. You make the call.

(However, PP, if yours has twice scored that high, there may be some untapped potential there? Or maybe he just knows how to hit the right PARCC keywords? Wonder if they've done a lot of PARCC-specific prep in his classes.)
