[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]cont. you are setting up a situation in which you will get no teachers to teach the "low" kids, because the teachers cannot possibly achieve what you want. Sure, some of the kids can get there--but not in one year. Pity the poor first grade teacher.[/quote] Why? In MD teachers are being evaluated on student test score GROWTH (pre and post test in the same year) not how many pass their final state tests. For example, the first grade teachers test their students on the DRA at the start of the year, and then at the end of the year. Kids who start out low, make improvement. Maybe they don't reach the benchmark, but they make substantial growth. That's great! [/quote]
