[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teachers don't need to record these scores on some excel spread sheet.  When students take these tests, the test itself is associated with the specific student, i.e. connected to their mcps ID.  So for a teacher to have to call each child over once he is done to record scores on a spreadsheet sounds like some kind of backwards technology being employed.  Does not sound correct to me.[/quote]

I think there's a delay in when the county gives the information to the teachers and the ones that want to know right away for grouping or intervention do it exactly the way PPs described at our DD's school. When a child finishes they tell the score to the teacher who writes it down or inputs it into her computer. In the process of jotting down the scores many students take a peek at the other scores. In the early grades they probably don't know what it means but by 4th or 5th many of them can see that their number is higher or lower than other numbers and they remember. Even if they don't see the list, many kids pay attention when the other kids say their scores out loud.

This is not standard practice but I don't think it's really out of the norm either.

I don't know of any school that actually posts the information.[/quote]
