[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The NMSF designation goes to the top 0.5 percent of kids in each state, so of course DC only has a few compared to the much larger high school populations of VA and MD. The cut off score also varies by state, with MD and MA usually having the highest cutoff. [b]DC 's cutoff is set at the highest state cutoff, and is generally higher than VA's cutoff score.[/b][/quote] Why the heck would they do this? Seems like a very odd design choice, given the high poverty rate for families in DC. Why wouldn't they just apply the same 0.5 percent methodology to kids in DC?[/quote]
