[quote=Anonymous]New poster here, and another person with kids at a Silver Spring Focus School. I just want to echo what the others are saying about assessed reading level in MCPS. My kids are "advanced" readers, but were only a little above grade level at writing in the early grades. As a result, their assessed reading level was always below what they read for pleasure. Once I understood that many kids have a gap between their assessed level and what they read for fun, I worried a lot less about whether my kids were at the "right" reading level and learned to trust the my child's teachers weren't deliberately juicing the numbers (as folks on DCUM would've had me believe).
