Illusion of Excellence
Ohio Achievement Assessments
Grading on a Curve: The Illusion of Excellence
Areas in grade levels needed only 34% -58% correct to be proficient!
And now,
The Ohio State Board of Education recently voted to lower state assessment (PARCC) proficiency cut scores to lower than recommended for college and career readiness

Impact on Gifted Education
Decreases the effectiveness of the gifted performance indicator on school and district report cards
Gifted performance Index is based on low cut scores
Value-added (growth) measurement is questionable

For More Information
Next year, ODE will be free to set cut scores that have no meaning beyond Ohio, which means Ohio is right back where we started before we moved to the new state assessments.
