Here is a middle ground: some FARMS families might value education and offer their children an environment where they can succeed. This is not the case for the majority of FARMS students, as suggested by Figure 1 in the link I provided earlier.[/quote]

Bottom line: the FARMs percentage don't measure what you want it to measure. So why use it?[/quote]
I like how test scores don't reflect the education outcomes, FARMS percentages are meaningless, but the white kids get the same education no matter where they go to school. So all the schools are equal.[/quote]

Do you think that a child's PARCC score is an accurate measure of how much a child values education? Or of how much the child's parent values education?

How about whether or not a child receives free or reduced meals -- do you think that's an accurate measure of how much a child or a parent values education?[/quote]
We are not talking about how much somebody values education, we are talking about the actual education they get.[/quote]

Tell that to the person who said that they want to have their children in the classroom with other children who value education.

Also, PARCC doesn't measure education that students get -- it measures knowledge that students have.[/quote]
