[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can put together the numbers. 88 8th graders took the ELA PARCC in 2021-2022 and 76 took the English 1 (9th grade) PARCC in 2022-2023. This is very close to the 78 that the the pathways dashboard reports stuck around from 8th grade. They lost more kids going from sixth to seventh grade - they went from 110 to 89. [b]That's kind of a funny year to leave.[/b] [/quote] Not funny. 5th graders don't take BASIS comps, 6th graders do. The experience is v. unpleasant for some of the kids. [/quote] Yeah, 5th grade is BASIS-lite. Sixth grade is much more stressful with four weeks of comp testing (mock pre-comps, pre-comps, mock comps, comps) and all the time leading up to those weeks in between - it feels like comps are a constant focus of the school day/year. BASIS loses even A students who just want a different school experience and have other options to do so.[/quote]
