[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A 251 is literally off the chart for Spring MAP-M score for 4th grade. https://teach.mapnwea.org/impl/NormsTables.pdf (see page 22; 99th percentile for 4th grade is 247). If this is really the case, they are effectively getting rid of it and (shocker!) have not been making statements about the future of compacted math in good faith.[/quote] I agree. Given the pandemic situation, I would have been okay with MCPS enforcing a more rigorous cut-off than usual, and erring on the side of having kids repeat content for mastery. But this is bananas. They are effectively taking the really tippity top kids (who would under previous circumstances have been doing Pre-Algebra in 5th) and demoting them one level, and then treating everyone else as one big undifferentiated mass. That's bad for kids, bad for teachers, and ultimately bad for MCPS. [/quote]
