[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would like to point out that those national norms include low SES kids, who are pretty disadvantaged. Yes there are disadvantaged kids in MCPS, but compared to other areas the difference is pretty stark and the kids in MCPS are more privileged on average. I have seen stats from a study showing that if you remove the low ses scores, the average scores jump. I don’t remember the exact amount but I remember being surprised. [/quote] Or perhaps I should say in particular, parents posting on dcum are probably in clusters of privileged, educated families where the kids are averaging higher.[/quote] Thank you for detracting that statement -- MCPS is swollen with disadvantaged children and working hard to address their issues.[/quote]
