Thank you again for all the help. I just thought if I could show them that the CSI was off by a couple of points I could avoid the whole appeal process.
I think it is slightly alarming that who I was speaking with is unfamiliar with the testing and scoring. I wonder if they can show me other students scores who were in the same range as hers or with a CSI of 130 or higher(without their identifying information) to be sure hers falls within the same range. Is that something a school would do?
I also find it slightly frustrating that their only measure of acceptance is 2 tests/teacher recommendation and one of the test they will look at the last score, but if you look at how she does historically on the STAR test she would qualify hands down. Seems unfair, but they are already giving me the line if they bend the rules for one person than they have to for everyone, so not sure how likely she will get in. The good news is she is in for math and they will reevaluate in 2 years when she goes to 7th grade.
I do appreciate the information and help from everyone!
