[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They really shouldn't have expanded to middle school. They had a pretty good thing going with ECE and elementary. Middle school is a whole other ball game. [/quote] +1[/quote] as long as it doesn't impact the elementary, no harm done.[/quote] Plenty of harm done by having poor performing upper grades.. Low PARCC scores and student retention rates are important elements of the PCSB Tier rating. Tier ratings may not mean much to ECE parents, but it hurts schools financially. Private donors have been intrigued by CMI's model, but won't invest if the results aren't there.[/quote] I thought PCSB tier ratings went away and there will be new ratings this year, citywide?[/quote] The inputs will be essentially the same in the new system; it's a much bigger change for DCPS than charters. Rather than 1, 2, 3 there will now be 5 levels and DCPS and charters will be compared. The challenges CMI is having with test scores (even controlling for students with SN) and retention won't go away. [/quote]
