Proficiency ≠ grade level!

But it’s easy to understand your confusion. Nobody explains this well, least of all depts of ed!

“Proficient for today’s eighth graders reflects approximately what the average twelfth grader knew in mathematics in 1990.”

But more than the financial impact, open enrollment could upend the dynamic of schools as the centerpiece of communities, Dilg said. It could also jeopardize existing partnerships if school districts are forced to compete for students. https://t.co/Ssta1Hlubg
