[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]qualitative weighs more.  Otherwise there would be a TJ problem (which they fixed).  Test scores do no foster inclusiveness - they will prob get ride of testing down the road.

Remember when ap and honors classes had to be recommended?  Now it’s up to the student whether or not

I don’t think they’ll do away with all testing. It can be an important data-point in conjunction with other information. Testing used to hold a lot more weight (and was predictive of program success) until prepper parents ruined it. The school really had no choice but to pivot to a more holistic approach bc so many parents were prepping their kids for the tests, which rendered them essentially useless w/o other points of confirmation (HOPE/GBRS, iready, work samples etc).

iReady!!! :lol:  :lol:  :lol: [/quote]

Yes, I understand iready is garbage, but it’s another data point in creating a more thorough student profile. What do you want the schools to do? They can’t rely solely on teacher feedback or school testing or parent referral or report cards, so they collect all the data from all these different areas to make a determination. Do you have a better suggestion? [/quote]
