[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What if a student is well behaved, takes school seriously, but is a first-generation American, or arrived in this country as a child. That student, who may also be at-risk or economically disadvantaged, may well score a high-3 on PARCC ELA in 7th grade but be perfectly capable of succeeding and contributing to SWW or Banneker. Would you shut them out of every application high school in the city?[/quote] No. If I could, I'd tutor them like mad, and provide them and their families with other forms of support, until they could work at or above grave level.[/quote] Ok but since you cannot tutor them, and DCPS doesn't provide that sort of support, this kid has to fend for his/herself? That's nuts. Not sure why everyone is so worked up over PARCC being the gateway for the Walls test. This is LITERALLY the first year that's been the case. For all you know, kids with 3s, and perhaps even 2s, have been admitted for years. [/quote]
