[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]it's not like your kid is going to get to do something more enriching if she finishes the test super early. might as well put in some effort and do your best.[b] For upper grades, PARCC may affect entrance into exam schools[/b].[/quote] This is true. PARCC scores will be used as part of the DCPS application school admissions process. [/quote] I think MS kids will take it more serious than the HS school kids; don't see a problem there.[/quote] Yep. MS kids have much less freedom within their day, and all middle schoolers must take the test. Part of the reason the high school tests at Wilson were such a mess is that, apparently, no one could figure out who to test. It isn't as simple as 'all 10th graders.' But the opt-out parents need to keep in mind the application schools, if they want to preserve that as an option for their kids. The 7th grade test will be the one used. [/quote]
