[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The PARCC is a dumb way to measure HS proficiency in math and English. Many upscale school districts around the around the country now use the PSAT or SAT instead of a specific state test. The Feds are fine that approach. Why should DC HS kids take PARCC seriously? What's in it for them? Many kids at Walls, JR and other DCPS programs essentially blow off PARCC, they might not even turn up for school on testing days. Ask your DC public HS students how many kids were missing on testing days. Many.[/quote] Sure kids skip PARCC testing but I would say lots more of the lower performing kids than higher performing kids so true percentages of proficiency is likely lower overall. [/quote]
