Correction here are the MCAP 4th grade numbers for Flora Singer:

Black -35.7
Hispanic - 11.6
White - 50
FARMs - 11.1
Percentage proficient


That doesn’t seem right- IIRC FARMs is more like 40%?


You’ve memorized the percentage of kids receiving FARMs who were proficient in 4th grade ELA and maths on MCAP? Highly doubtful, you probably didn’t read and think this lists the overall proportion of kids receiving FARMS. Anyway, these numbers are correct.

That's awesome. Everyone knows the MCAP is flawed. Those numbers are WAY above the state average so they're doing amazing.

Just add +40 to any of these numbers to compensate for the MCAP's poor calibration.
