[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At a W feeder school, did not make it to the lottery pool even … wtf[/quote]

So, being at a W feeder automatically qualifies your kid?  wtf
[/quote]

Actually I meant the opposite. Not sure what stats you need to qualify from a W feeder as my kid has the stats required but i am
Sure the cut off for low farms school is higher and therefore my kid did not qualify.  [/quote]

If the kid didn’t make the lottery pool, then they didn’t meet the basic score requirements of report card and top 15 percentile MAP-R. [/quote]

But that’s what I am telling you. He did. Report card is straight A’s and the map r was above 85th so there must be a different cut off for our w feeder school.  
It will be helpful if people can post the mapr scores for qualifying students. It would take the guesswork out.[/quote]

Are you sure kid’s in 3rd grade, and is reading at least grade level? If so you should just contact the program to get clarification.[/quote]

Wtf?? Yes he is in 3rd grade and reading above grade level. And yes he has A’s on the report card and yes MAP-R is well above 85th. Now can someone tell me if you kid from a W feeder school qualified for the pool with MAP-R above 85? 86? Where is the cut off?

I don’t care about ces as that was a long shot anyway but i hoped he would get enrichment at home school but this letter might not qualify him for that even. [/quote]

Actually I think you’re right. Map r is locally normed to FARMS rate, so it appears your kid’s map r, while being above 85 percentile, is not high enough for low FARMS school. I’m also be curious what that cutoff is. My guess is 95 percentile?[/quote]
