[quote=Anonymous]The only indicator for PARCC at your kid’s school you should look at is the one that matches your demographic by race and class. That’s a sad reality of education in America. If black families with good incomes like yours are still getting bad test scores at your DCPS you should worry. If the white girls like yours at your school aren’t doing worse than top scores don’t worry even if the black boys don’t succeed (unless you care about everyone succeeding-the Q is “where to put your kids,” not how to fix education for all, right? The issue with PARCC data is that those data are usually unavailable in schools with tiny cohorts of people like you - the gentrifier-desegregating DCPS schools. In these situations I just default back to what I know about my son. He’s a good test taker. And I know the science is that peers of different background won’t drag him down. [/quote]
