[quote=Anonymous]That 71.7 percent figure is the school system’s performance target in reading. MCPS's performance target is probably much lower than national or state reading proficiency standards. It looks like that 71.7 percent figure is regarding students in second, fifth, eighth and 11th grades (not just 3rd graders), and is based on "a mix of students’ report card grades, district tests and other outside exams — such as state-level exams, AP tests and the SAT." Report cards are highly inflated. To determine actual (not inflated) reading proficency, outside assessments such as MAP-R or even MCAP would be a more reliable gauge than MCPS's performance target.[/quote]
