[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I appreciate this concern about PARCC math scores at LAMB.  They are not strong.  But PARCC is not the be-all and end-all of measuring math skills.  I am a LAMB parent and know they use other assessment tools.  PARCC is not compatible with Montessori math.  But my daughter is entering 8th grade in DCI and was placed a grade ahead in math when she entered the school, as were many of her LAMB classmates.  Yes, there are parents that are concerned about it regardless of whether or not we understand that it isn't compatible with PARCC and the administration is also concerned about it and does not brush it aside.

But how did she score on PARCC? Without knowing whether the kids that place ahead scored 4's or 5's, it's no accurate to assume that the low number of kids scoring on grade level are actually at or above grade level, but just not demonstrating that on PARCC.[/quote]

She scored a 4, and was a few points away from 5.  [/quote]
