Thank you! I'm not too worried about his score going down. But her attitude about it going down worried me! She was very flippant about it and didn't even know it had gone down because she never looked at last year's scores.

I don't understand the cap so I'm going to ask her about it. She said his growth goal was 10 pts by spring. But if he can't make his goal due to the cap, I don't really get it!

I appreciate your help- so sad that you know more than the teacher who is supposed to use this to design her entire curriculum!
