I just learned about them in conferences but I thought they said they would be posted

Is this for APS? Did the scores get posted somewhere? I don’t see them in parentvue.

No. If you are in aps, they are only doing mi this year in lower elementary because of covid in order to quantify learning loss.
My second grader scored in seventh grade. She doesn’t know how to multiply or divide. It kind of made me question the validity of the test.

It's how they'll put the kids into math groups. It's not transparent to the kids fortunately, but the teacher breaks them into groups to do small lessons. Some need catch up, some get enrichment.
