[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP- -that is stark. CMI families, have they done any messaging on why-test-scores?[/quote] The families there will tell you they like that CMI doesn't "teach to the test." The same families will tell you their IB schools were "not an option" because they [b]lack a "cohort of high-performing peers." [/b]What they don't realize is that if they went back to their IB schools, their kids might get the remediation they need. I don't love PARCC and think some of its questions are confusing, but a kid who scores 4s is going to be better at math and reading than a kid who scores 2s, and I do care if kids learn how to read and do math.[/quote] This is the point. CMI doesn't have high performing peers. There are more high-performing peers at Noyes, Leckie, Beers, Houston, King, and Brightwood than at CMI. PP can blame me all she wants for calling names but the fact of the matter is there are CMI parents that are willingly letting their kids stay in a very low performing school for access to white/rich peers.
