[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh MCPS has absolutely declined. Don’t move here for the schools.[/quote]
And it is still the big dog in the area. No one can compete with MCPS in the area.[/quote]

Laughable.  Maryland ranks below Florida on NAEP.  MCPS is the largest district in Maryland.  The state ranks MCPS 5th in the state.  Q.E.D.  This is just an overpaid MCPS employee hoping the con lasts until they get their pension.  Don’t blame them.  [/quote]
dp.. laughable.  The NAEP for MD numbers were from Baltimore, not MCPS.  This is an MCPS forum, and OP asked about MCPS, not Baltimore.

Not an MCPS employee. I've got my fair share of MCPS gripe, but the NAEP score for MD is not one of them since it didn't include MCPS.[/quote]

Not sure why you believe this.  NAEP gets a representative sample from across the school systems in the state. It’s not just from Baltimore. [/quote]

PP here, if you’re really interested this is an article talking about the state scores relative to the scores in Baltimore.  The Baltimore scores are drastically lower than the state scores.

1.  That article is from 2019
2. MD is made up of more than MoCo.  Do you have the numbers for MCPS?  
3. Additionally, NAEP is optional except for Title 1 schools in order to get federal funding. 
4. 2022 numbers for DC, MD, VA.  All abysmal.

No doubt, there was heavy learning loss, but per the article, URM test scores fell drastically due to the pandemic; whites only a little, and Asian test scores held steady.  [/quote]

Not all are that concerned with the achievement gap. People have different values and priorities, but I'm confident everyone is achieving great at what they value. The notion that everyone values the same achievement seems poorly aligned with reality.[/quote]
