[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Putting aside the uselessness of the survey itself, the results letter was incredibly dense and full of jargon. The second sentence is 50 words long! Although the letter sort of says it's not a "grade", the rating scale is very similar to a grade. The entire rating scale is poorly described and the two digit decimal precision is ridiculous. There's also no other context given - how do my kids ratings compare to the overall school average? A friendlier format that fully explains each topic with the student's results and suggested discussion questions would have been far more useful. There may be some value here, but the average parent either won't understand this letter or worse, completely misunderstand it. We'll be opting out in the future.[/quote] Why didn’t you opt out to begin with?[/quote] Where was this? Never saw it. [/quote] An opt out form was sent in our Friday folders. Additionally, it was on the FCPS website, along with a copy of the exact survey that was being administered. Once I saw the survey, I immediately knew I wanted to opt out.[/quote] Fcps tries to be as non transparent as possible with the opt out forms. Contrast that with how vigilant and harrassing they are when they are trying to collect impact aide forms. [/quote]
