[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This year's 5th grade parents should be more pissed than anyone. Each year that PARCC has been in place this cohort has been forced to take an additional section, which does not even count towards their scores. This is in additional to 4th grade NAEP testing last year. OSSE is administering to this control group to allow the vendor evaluate the test questions for consistency and effectiveness in evaluating core competencies. PARCC is a huge time suck as is, but this additional layer for 5th grade is really irritating. It would bother me less if they could ensure enough machines at each and every school in order to permit a shorter testing window rather than one that spreads out over weeks. I'm thankful that our ES only "preps" in briefly reviewing the online application functionality so the kids don't get hung up on the site usability.[/quote] Very few students take NAEP. [/quote]
