“It is very complicated to score. We are able to look at samples and in one example, a student scored advanced with only three or four words in a sentence and very choppy, simple writing, versus a student who was scored unsatisfactory but used complex sentences and great vocabulary words in well-written answers. For that reason, we can’t release those results to students and parents.”
-Broken Arrow Assistant Superintendent Janet Dunlop, speaking about why Oklahoma will for the second year in a row throw out the results of writing tests taken by 97,000 fifth- and eighth-graders (Source)
