Jazzmin's ELA Test Results

Jazzmin got her ELA test results back yesterday. This is the test given in 4th grade to see if kids can be promoted to the 5th grade. Being that Jazzmin is ALREADY in 5th grade, the results are a bit slow in being delivered. But public school kids are really the ones who have to worry about being held back if they don't pass, catholic schools get to make the judgement call.

The score is from 1-4 - 1 you fail, 2 below standard, 3 meets standard, 4 above standard. Jazzmin got a 3 in reading and 3.5 in math. When Jazzmin would do the practice tests - her teacher would always give her a 2. So I was worried about the out come of the actual ELA test.

But I've come to realize that Jazzmin's 4th grade teacher is not the greatest. "Ironic" how everybody's grades went down when they went into her class and now in 5th grade Jazzmin's grades are back to being in the 90s. And, thankfully, Jazzmin's dizzy spells are gone now that she's not in her class anymore.

I'd tell the principal about the situation but I've dealt with her before. Just a waste of time.
