[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s a multi page report with your kid’s scores, how they performed in different sections, how they compare to their peers, etc. it’s not just “Susie got a 4” [/quote]

The peer comparison is very limited.  Nobody takes PARCC anymore so you are just comparing to other kids in DC of which many are low performing.

It doesn’t give you data on national comparison like other more widely used standardized tests.

Very true. I think DC is the only place using PARCC. At its height there were more than 10 states using PARCC including Maryland. So, why do you think it is like that? I would love to know how my kids compare to other kids in other states.[/quote]

Now DC + DoDEA, and partially MA and LA.

I wonder what it costs DC now that it is shouldering the burden?

Wow! Do all schools do MAP testing or is there some other standard that could provide a general sense of how the kids are doing and how they compare to their peers?[/quote]
