On Middle School Admissions and Test Scores  Answers to your survey questions about standardized testing                     

  No,  children do  not need test  scores  to  get into middle school.  (See the list on back side of this sheet  for more information. ) 

   

   

Anna Allanbrook Q&A with parents:     Children  are really  looked  at  by their attendance,  behavior and how they approach learning​ .  Middles schools are looking for a diverse group of children; all kinds of learners.      If  a  child  has   missed  15  days  of  school,  or  is  late  more  than  25  times,  this  will   affect  their  consideration.      If  there’s  an  interview,  h ​​ ow  a  child behaves  and  works  with  others in  a  group—they  are watching.  Middle school interviewers sometimes want to see how children interact with each other.      We  had  a  very  diverse group admitted to Math and Science last year.  Some of  our children with low  test scores ​ did​  get in.  Some of our children with high test scores ​ did not​  get in.      I  believe  principals  of  all middle  schools want BNS  kids.   I’ve talked with them, I’ve asked them, and  this is what they tell me.    

 We find BNS IEP students have no trouble getting spots in middle schools.
