[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But didn't MCPS get rid of final exams so smart students could "focus on the PARCC exams" in May?

I still wouldn't put an ounce of brainpower into it. conserve energy for other things. [/quote]
Hm.. well, I guess if you don't care about having your kid get into a magnet program, then sure, ignore PARCC.  But, if you do want to have your DC try for magnet, then you would want them to do well on PARCC. Also, I'm thinking that schools use PARCC score for other things, like maybe compacted math placement,etc...

We aren't talking about HS here. Westbrook is an ES.[/quote]

we live 90 minutes in traffic from a HS magnet; it's off the table for us and most of our school pyramid. [/quote]

But your kid at Westbrook would go east in the morning while the traffic goes west, and west in the afternoon while the traffic goes east, so the amount of time it takes in traffic isn't really relevant.
