[quote=Anonymous]What PP says is really simplistic (I can tell you, I have a middle schooler and a high schooler.) Of course the social emotional piece is just as important, and occasionally more so than the academic one, but what a middle school must be able to accomplish - and that's no small feat - is to foster middle schooler's social-emotional health about academics in a way that sustains them into the teenage and young adult years, and hopefully beyond, into times when you will not be heard and when you will not be able to hover over them. A school's ability to handle that portion of a middle schooler's development is not measured by PARCC scores. You really have to go ask, see, and experience it.[/quote]
