But the board agrees to make data on how students perform year to year on standardized tests more easily available.
The Los Angeles school board rejected a proposal to give Yelp-like ratings to its schools, but agreed Tuesday to make data on how students perform year to year on standardized tests more easily available.
“Summative approaches hide a lot, that’s why we’ve been disaggregating information,” Goldberg said during the meeting. on year-to-year test scores available. The district currently calculates and collects this information, but does not make it accessible online.Other board members who voted to reject the numeric ratings said such a system could be a way to drive parents at schools with lower ratings to charter schools, a source of competition for district schools.
Board member Nick Melvoin, the sole dissenting vote who pushed for the rating system, said third-party websites already are creating “imperfect” rankings that parents rely on.
