[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All along FCPS has said the iready isn’t used for anything but here we are determining if a kid should take algebra in 6th based at least in large part on an iready, a test which even teachers hate and don’t emphasize. [/quote] This is a really good point. Iready should not be used to determine anything since we have always been told that it is not used in any determinations. Now they are using it and nobody knew. This is not a reasonable measure for placement into Algebra. They should only use the SOLs and have a well defined requirement. This stinks of "wholistic" selection bias all over again.[/quote]
