[quote=Anonymous][quote]Why IS 80% of a class receiving a P for proficient? What should I be telling my child to strive for? Proficiency?? How about Full Potential. Can great MoCo MCPS provide that to my kids? Or not so much?[/quote] This is the problem with MCPS. It doesn't give a crap about any child working at their academic potential let alone striving for anything. It doesn't matter whether your child is doing his best or worst. This isn't their purpose. Their purpose is to collect data that a high enough percentage of students meet proficiency. Any resources spent anywhere not on bringing students up to proficiency is wasted. They will not create and collect data that differentiates student's level beyond P because this creates problems for them by showing an achievement gap. They certainly will not teach beyond proficiency.[/quote]
