[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Fact: Florida has higher NAEP scores than ‘all-mighty’ Maryland even though Maryland spends 2x more.  Cue someone from MoCo who blames Baltimore for these abysmal scores when MCPS is the largest school district in Maryland.  Lol. [/quote]

This cannot be.

This doesn't show what you think it does.

[quote]Federal law specifies that NAEP is voluntary for every student, school, school district, and state. However, federal law also requires all states that receive Title I funds to participate in NAEP reading and mathematics assessments at fourth and eighth grades. Similarly, school districts that receive Title I funds and are selected for the NAEP sample are also required to participate in NAEP reading and mathematics assessments at fourth and eighth grades.[/quote]

Other than Title 1 schools, which yes, would include Baltimore City schools, you don't have any idea which schools in MD, or FL for that matter, took part.

This is cherry picking data.

When I first saw the data, I was shocked, too, until I read that FAQ and realized that the data does not reflect the entire state.[/quote]
