C-SCOPE/TRS was not designed for your classroom, it was
designed for average students in general education track.
It does not address special population needs either Sp.Ed,
ESL, or G&T. It was designed to get students who needed a
little more performance increase to get them passing.
If your school was so great and wonderful, and your
students so amazing why did your district lease the
product, they must have felt you were doing something
wrong. We dont have top performing districts and school
using c-SCOPE, the ones that do just use the VAD and YAG.
So if your school was an inclusion or immersion school you
must have been doing something wrong.
