Do you understand what PARCC actually is?

Getting a 4 or 5 will likely be required for HS graduation (per Maryland State Board). It could begin as early as next year. Yes, I care. My kid is probably older than yours.

So most kids won't graduate? That seems unlikely.

I agree it seems unlikely, but I can only tell you what the requirements will be when they are implemented.

Usually the teacher that pulls my son for testing doesn't allow him to click to the final page, preventing him from viewing his score. However, this last time she did it by accident.

For one reason or another, his school doesn't want them seeing the scores.

Sometimes the score feature on MAP is turned off or malfunctions.

My son tells me his scores every time he takes the MAP. Maybe other kids just have bad memories b/c none of them seem to remember them.

Another data point I can use to supplement my child's P's.
