[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sometime up upgraded mentioned DCI appealing to change their charter regarding IB goals. Is that true and where could I read about that?[/quote]

Typo. I meant upthread, not upgraded.[/quote]

It was me. I can’t remember where I read the information - I think it was posted by the DCPCSB since they always post their agendas on social media. This is the only information I could find via Google search. Of course, DCI tried to frame the request in a positive way, but really they were just requesting to change their goals for the performance framework.

Okay, I found it. Here is the transcript - the DCI stuff starts on page 133. You can clearly see how they asked to lower the standards for their goals.

That's not what the transcript says. You could argue about whether the old goals or the new goals for language (STAMP) test are higher, but the executive director explains pretty clearly why they're changing them and what that means.

The IB change is about the MYP (6th-10th grade) assessment and the fact that kids can't take that assessment on Chromebooks. Which is true! -- they'd have to get enough Macbooks or PCs for all 200+ kids per grade to take the test.

Folks who are interested should go read themselves![/quote]
