Been trying to figure how to get the school to understand that my dd9 needs more. There is no gifted program and they "will not and do not skip"...so, I was hoping her CMT scores would back me up...I'm wondering how much pull they have with adminitration...

She got advanced in all areas.

Math (100-400) she got a 378
raw core of 105 out of 106


Reading (100-400) she got a 311
raw score of 35 out of 40

Degrees of reading power Unit Score = 79 (hoping someone from CT can tell me what this is about)

Writing (100-400) She got 400!

Direct Assessment of Writing Holistic Score (2-12) She got 12.

R these good? Obviously they are good...I guess what I'm asking...is are they good enough to use as evidence for further testing?

I looked at the district % and it looks like although 30% of our district (120 kids)scored "advanced" only 8% got a 12 on the Direct Assessment of Writing...which looks like about 10 kids...compared to the state % which was 3% of kids in the state scored a 12...

It's hard to know HOW advanced they scored. But 30% advanced seems to be a LOT of kids which makes me think this is not a good test to bring up to the admins...

If she is "as gifted" as I think she is, should she have gotten perfect scores on everything?

Thank you Connecticut people!
