Re: Re: Did you school provide you TAKS M &/or A test scores?

My son also took the TAKS M for the same reasons and we got his test scores at the same time as every other child in his class. He passed reading last year, but he has always been an avid reader. We're not so confident about math this year, but we'll see. Maggie

We are in Montgomery ISD, north of Houston. My son took the TAKS M (I think - it was essentially the same as the other kids took, but more white space and a couple less questions - he also got to take it in a quiet room with no other children - only the monitor) last year, 3rd grade. We were told his scores. 90 math and 94 reading (commended!! ). I don't know why they would't have them. The main reason he took the modified TAKS is due to attention issues. He was able to wiggle and squiggle, sit on the floor, hum, take a walk, or whatever he needed to focus. I know that he would not have done this well in a room full of other kids rustling their papers and where he had to be quiet and still.Hope this helps,>> > > Hi all:> Not sure if this should be done as a poll or not, however I'm interested to find out which schools and/or SD provided their child's test scores for the TAKS M and/or TAKS Alt. I understand one SD did provide the results despite standards not established last school year. My ARD Committee (HISD) refused to give me my son's results, claimed all scores weren't even available. Who else got this same story? Also wondering if anyone else from HISD got their child's test scores. Thanks> Sincerely, Vivian>

Hi:

Which School District are you in? It's great news that many have success stories. My thanks to all who responded to my e-mail.
