[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]HS PARCC Scores aren't as telling as you suggest. There's nothing in it for the teens to score high, so many don't try too hard on the test. Some don't even turn up on testing days without penalty (a real issues at J-R). Many states now use PSAT or SAT to meet HS standardized test requirements, to incentivize the kids to score high on a test that might be useful to them individually. I'd like to see an apples-to-apples comparison between Latin Second Street and BASIS on AP scores and college acceptances. [/quote] I would not be surprised if BASIS AP scores were higher, but that isn't a sole reason to choose BASIS over Latin. Latin is better for providing a more rounded education for kids who are less studious in a traditional sense, and who would not do well in a rigid environment, but have a chance to get a decent classical-style education. But yeah... My middle schooler did not take PARCC seriously at all this year.[/quote]
