[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is so much speculation and guess work around this process. Is it possible for FCPS to have an AAP workshop to explain how decisions are made? It sounds like subjective decisions are more than objective decisions[/quote]

Really what it should be is X score OR teacher recommendation. That would really save a lot of time assembling a packet for 2000+ kids, having a committee meet and review 2000+ kids etc., and go a long way to make things more transparent for families. [/quote]
Equity is important, and the HOPE approach tackles the equity gap head-on. Previously, we let scores and recommendations dictate, leading to a widening equity gap. HOPE allows comparative rating within cultural groups, which should get us to desired equity and diversity.  HOPE offers a new sense of hope for a better equitable tomorrow.[/quote]

Is there somewhere that explains how HOPE questions “allow comparative rating within cultural groups”? I’m confused if that means reviewers look for always for some cultures and often for other cultures? Or is it that different questions now allow for better ratings for some/all when ask things like if a student is self-aware, how interacts with adults or shows compassion for others?[/quote]

Yes, fast internet search brings ups tons of write ups explaining approach and how used. Lots of university studies too.[/quote]
