[quote=Anonymous]In the past few years, it's been a bit of an obtuse deflection when central office (or schools utilizing central office language) say they use multiple data points. It's not been a sliding-scale heuristic, catching potential from many angles, but multiple hard cutoffs (even if the "hard" cutoff is different at different schools based on a FARMS-rate tranche). Since it's relatively easy to get an A grade (or set of A grades) or Above reading level, the MAP cutoff, or perhaps that for curricular assessment/MCAP/other standardized measure, becomes more of the litmus in their selection paradigms.[/quote]
