[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All of the schools do it. They start each unit with a PARCC-like diagnostic test and then base lessons on the so-called skills. The "curriculum" is system-wide. Mandated reading selections, according to a pacing chart. Teach these lessons, at this time, using these strategies.[/quote] My kid has been at charters and they do not spend weeks on PARCC prep. Plus, not to make this about BASIS, but our friends who are there tell us that BASIS seems not to care at all about PARCC. They do what they have to but they move on quick. [/quote] Our DCPS doesn't either. I think 90% of these replies (aside from the ones from teachers) are just WOTP parents who are making assumptions about what they think must be happening at EOTP schools.[/quote] Nope, 17-year DCPS teacher at mostly WOTP schools, including Deal.[/quote]
