[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So the only way Wilson scores could have dropped is because the students purposely threw the test? No chance that the emperor has no clothes? [/quote]

When the Wilson proctors report significant numbers of students finishing in 5 minutes, it's pretty clear that it isn't about their proficiency.

But the WaPo article says that the rate of participation was not much different than last year. Is that incorrect? I suppose the participation rate doesn't take into account those kids who did participate but only spent 5 minutes taking the test.[/quote]

ELA II had 317 test takers in 2015 and 411 in 2016, including a 50% increase in the number or SPED students tested and a 32% increase in the number of at risk students tested. [/quote]

But that was not real "participation."

Many of those kids apparently showed up and finished the test in 5 minutes.

It destroys the whole purpose of testing.[/quote]
