Committee lists iReady, local assessments and teacher recommendations as qualification criteria
Summary
The committee reviewed proposed criteria for advanced program placement including iReady scores, local assessments and teacher recommendations; no thresholds were set at the March 5 meeting.
During the March 5 curriculum meeting the committee listed the metrics to be used in qualifying students for advanced programs: iReady scores, local assessment scores and teacher recommendations. The clerk recorded those three elements as the criteria being considered but did not record numeric cutoffs or final thresholds.
Members discussed using a combination of assessments and professional judgment rather than a single cutoff score. The committee did not adopt specific thresholds on March 5 and asked staff to return with recommended scoring rubrics and any required timeline changes for placement decisions.
