BTW, in case you are wondering if grades were a factor…kiddo had earned a strong A in the previous/pre-prerequisite science course and a strong A throughout English classes. Honor Roll student. So, to our point, this was a cheap and hurtful way to sift out students. This has also now added fuel to the fire of distrust of faculty as well as added to test anxiety. Kiddo ended up earning an A in the most recent AP science class. BTW, Kiddo scored very high in the pre-testing or placement testing prior to arriving at school in 9th grade. Placed in highest math group for entering 9th graders. So, something else must have been going on. It was interesting that our kid was the one chosen to be blocked out of the class. You can PM me for more information. There are some kids (like mine) who just have “bad luck” at their school. I am sharing this with you all with the hope you will learn from our experiences.
- Many schools will keep your kid’s SSAT score on their platform or profile so that the teachers can see this. Same with PSAT scores from test taken at school and SAT scores reported to your school. ALso, a test prep organization was about to report Kiddo’s practice SAT to the school before we stopped them. So, before you sign up for a practice test with a school endorsed company or any company, make sure you indicate in writing that you do NOT want your kid’s scores reported to your prep school.
