Because it is not unexpected.

Lee Montessori is also really disappointing. Down overall in ELA, only slightly better in math. But their black performance is really low -- 0 in math and 13% in ELA.


Yikes
Granted PARCC is far from perfect, but is this a model that should be replicated EOTR?

Just picking a couple of WOTP schools at random, Janney's white students' scores are 90/86, and Lafeyette's are 86/90.

However, Shepherd's black and Hispanic students scores are far lower, which suggests there is room for improvement there--54/50 for black students, and 40/30 for Hispanic students.

In comparison, I looked at Lafayette's black student scores--48/54, and Janney, 59/45. Doesn't look like any of these schools are doing amazingly with black students.

Interestingly, Lafayette's Hispanic scores are pretty high--89/75. Ditto for Lafayette, 86/68.

I'd be interested to see what elementary schools have the highest PARCC scores for black and Latino students..


Great job Shepherd. It’s important to note that with Shepherd, 25% of their population (likely minority) are low income so not exactly apples to apples. What’s even more impressive to me is the scores between at risk and not at risk are very close 50/50 vs 60/56. Compare that with Lafayette (32/47 vs 82/84) and Murch (Janney didn’t have enough at risk) of (38/23 vs 76/76).


Not sure where you numbers above but looking at the list of all schools, Shepard is only in the 50 percentage with students at grade level in ELA and math, far below the EOTP schools.


Meant WOTP schools


Like PP mentions before, you should know that Shepherd has a far different makeup than schools WOTP (and not they are about same as Hearst). Shepherd’s white kids perform better than any school WOTP that I can see. Shepherd AA kids score higher than many WOTP AA kids (some of which there are not enough to count), same for at risk. Shepherd has 25% low income in their population in their school, WOTP averages like 6%. Do you really not know how to compare schools? Is that why DCPS is so bad in math?

See bolded. PP's point is that Shepherd's students are not as affluent as those WOTP, hence the difference in test scores, and that Shepherd is doing a decent job with the population they have.

MSAA scores are not in yet so overall totals may change.

Looks like Ross remains #1 in reading for ES with 91% 4+ in ELA.

Kudos to Stoddert who pulled a whopping 88% 4+ in math, up from its #1 status for ES at 82.8% last year! Seems like Stoddert is ahead of other DCPS ES in math (usual caveats about sampling, statistics, etc. apply). Anyone from Stoddert who can explain? Big emphasis on math? Great math teachers there?

Has anyone seen a link to the excel file that OSSE typically makes available that includes all of the results? The dashboard is nice, but not easy to use to look at the results of multiple schools/populations.

My kids' school performance was disappointing. Not because I feel some kind of jealousy of others, but I really hope for students' growth. I think staff are great. And no I'm not naming the school and starting a thing.
