Zach's "PASS" standardized test scores came in the mail while we were in FL. I Just had to open it right away! I know that I shouldn't put a huge value on these things...I guess I just still feel kind of unsure of myself at times, and even though HS feels like a great fit for us, I still worry that maybe the kids aren't getting everything they need from me. I test for my own reassurance more than anything else...I feel more like it's testing me and my teaching ability than him, if you know what I mean! Anyway...he did so well!!! It's kind of hard to explain the way they separate out the grades, but the summary is that he scored average to high in all categories, and shocked the heck out of me by ranking in the 90th national percentile in math! I'm really proud of him and SO relieved to see proof that he's doing well.
Yeah for both of you. My stress levels went down after I got our scores back. How they score stuff still makes me scratch my head.
Wonderful! It is always nice to see your children preform well. I hate the standardized tests but I will admit I love seeing the high scores. lol. It does give you a bit of reassurance.
Way to go Zach and you too what a wonderful mom and teacher you are. I think this calls for some ice cream..
