[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just call central they will tell you your child’s Localized Norm. I promise they did not make a mistake, you child just isn’t the strongest amongst their peers in your school. [/quote] I think one of the unintentional side effects of the new system is an arms race at the highest income schools. Once the MCCPTA Gifted Ed Committee got MCPS to admit to the numbers for whatever year it was, that set a new benchmark for folks to prep against, which almost certainly moved the bar upward. [/quote] It certainly is a side-effect of using a more gameable metric as a proxy for ability.[/quote]
