Students take more district tests than state tests (in grades 3-8), BUT spend more time on state exams, study finds. http://bit.ly/1vEbKKf
1st evidence at scale where HS reform led not only to increases in grad rates but also college readiness, enrollment: http://www.realcleareducation.com/articles/2014/10/16/small_high_schools_post_huge_gains_in_graduation_college_1117.html …

.@DataDiva @ChadAldeman @anya1anya @SmithZakiya Interesting. I'd back giving state test+PBAT annually, but argument is PBAT only.
.@DataDiva @ChadAldeman @anya1anya @SmithZakiya But surely there's some positive correlation btwn them? And if not, seems impt to give both!
.@ChadAldeman @anya1anya @SmithZakiya And if local PBATs show kids are learning math stds well, why doesn't growth on state tests match up?
.@ChadAldeman @anya1anya @SmithZakiya As it's a new pgm, it's unwise to dismiss any of the available data outright, incl. #CommonCore tests
