[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here's another way to look at it:

FCPS has 144 elementary schools, with a 2nd grade population ranging from 40-50 for smaller elementary schools (300 student body) to about 140-150 (1000 student body).  About 1/2 the kids were screened for LIV prior to 2019, more today because of the equity measures implemented.  So if you run the numbers, you're looking at screening anywhere between 8,700 to over 11,000 kids.   If you think your data is accurate, that's approximately 1,000 teachers reviewing close to a 1,000 student files.  Sigh.  I'm sure you can think of FCPS's efficiency marker when thinking through this more clearly and assuming what you read on FCPS website is disclosing all the nuances of their "holistic" process.  If you have had 3 kids going through the process, I'd think you should be more aware than you are today.  Some reading material for you, for when you have time to think through this more logically.

I read that when it was first published. IIRC they said in the local norms pilot that local norms would add a handful of kids to the overall number screened, but not many.[/quote]
