[quote=Anonymous][quote]against the law to consider SOL scores for class placement.[/quote] Don't believe that. One year in elementary school all of the students who had not passed the social studies SOL were placed in the same class. I thought those students were certainly being watched, and it seemed assumed that they were not as strong students (drove me crazy -their teacher the year before had been new to FCPS and a brand new teacher) FCPS can say it doesn't "label" a kid if they don't pass. I think it does - absolutely. Do what you can to make sure your kid passes. Work with them at home. There are practice materials online. I use to say 'no' to offers of special remediation at school. I didn't want my kid singled out and taken out of class. And besides I thought the teachers should have more pressure put on them. Ordinary, average learners should not have to be thought of as needing "remedial help". The school is being lazy.[/quote]
