[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s because the test doesn’t count for their grades so a bunch of selfish, entitled kids blew it off. The math PARCC was required for graduation.[/quote]

Why are they selfish and entitled because they didn’t push themselves for yet another test, one that doesn’t matter?[/quote]
DP.. so then the low PARCC scores at say... Einstein HS doesn't mean much, too, then, right?[/quote]

No silly, everyone knows that when rich white kids fail it’s becuse they do it on purpose, and when everyone else fails it means they’re lazy, their parents don’t believe in education, etc.[/quote]

This is part of the false narrative the real-estate industry pushes to drive up home values. Every MCPS school has a high-achieving cohort the difference is the degree to which poverty the impacts test averages. Honestly, some focus schools may in fact do a better job since the classes are much smaller.[/quote]

Plus much better on your kids confidence and success to be a Big Fish in a Little Pond of ESOL and FARMs.
More real world as well. So sick of these elites from nonSES diverse schools and companies telling truly diverse public schools what to “try out.”[/quote]

For me at least, I appreciate that my kids go to a diverse school where they learn about people who are different than they are and feel empathy and compassion for others. Imagine going to a school like Churchill with all the bullying and racism. [/quote]

Exactly.  Because the only school with bullying and racism is Churchill with all the complicit white people.[/quote]
