[quote=Anonymous][quote] When I said that my kid tests several grade levels ahead, I meant on standardize intelligence/cognitive tests given by educational psychologists and developmental specialists, tests that are used nationally. My kid tends to test around the 95%, which puts him probably around the top 1/3 or 1/4 of his class at Janney, but certainly does not make him standout. I think this is pretty common for any high-performing, high-SES school, whether in DCPS or burbs. As I was told, scoring 95% nationally is really like 80% in the DMV. [/quote] I find this fascinating as a private school parent of a 4th grader in DC, who has taken only one intelligence test in his life (WPPSI). Keeping in mind that Janney only goes to 5th grade ... why do you keep having your child take standardized intelligence testS? (multiple times, am copying your plural use of the word). Is that common? [/quote]
