[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. For ES, SOL’s do not affect class placement. Even my 5th grader, headed to MS, has already been placed for next year.[/quote]

Our school does use it to determine lowest and middle math group and whether to bump anyone to level 4. It's also a data point used to determine if a kid should take Math 7 or Math 7 honors.[/quote]

OP here. I’m in LCPS which sadly has NO classroom differentiation, except reading groups which are done by DRA, not SOL. There is a 1 day/week gifted program in 4th and 5th that my daughter does, but it’s based on Cogat/nnat, not SOL. And all of her classes for next year (6th) were recommended/confirmed in February, well before even the original SOL test date.[/quote]

I teach at an LCPS ES. There is indeed classroom differentiation. There are classrooms that are primarily EL, SPED, advanced, etc. We just can’t call it that, but you can tell by the support teachers who do (or don’t) serve each room. It’s also fairly obvious by the concentration of students in each classroom.[/quote]
