OP here. I will do this (again.) But I asked all of these questions at the fall conference  (this year and last year) and was basically given non-answers.

And I'm sorry to the PP who finds it "off-putting" that I don't agree that my daughter, who sails through homework and tests, is put into a learning group with children who are so far below grade level that they need excessive amounts of help and STILL do far worse than my daughter on graded assignments! WTH?[/quote]

OP, I'll say this again.Forget about getting answers from the teacher at this point. You need a meeting ( not just the regular pt conference) with counselor, teacher, specialist... This is how it works in MCPS if you want some answers. The ball is in your court now.[/quote]

It now turns out that OP actually wasn't given "non-answers" at the fall conference. The teacher told OP what OP's daughter's reading level is. But OP has since forgotten, and doesn't seem to consider it important information anyway.[/quote]

I said I was given non-answers about word study, which is true. Word study has been my primary concern all along - not sure how everyone got so fixated on the reading. DD's teacher went out of her way to say the two are NOT related. Do you disagree?[/quote]

So confusing. OP, you are worried about spelling group placement???  All of this for spelling? You can easily help improve her spelling.[/quote]

The original post mentions a lot more than spelling so this is a very confusing post.[/quote]
