I spoke to Evan's teacher and it turns out she made a mistake in recommending this extra class for Evan. I told her Scott and I had discussed it but did not feel his grades warranted him staying after school. She said she didn't have his information in front of her and I said I do...and read off what she had put on his report card in the comment section for math testing. She was really taken aback and she said she must have made a mistake in reading the lines on her master result chart. She apologized several times and I said it was ok that I was glad it was a mistake.
Then we spent a little time just talking about the mechanics of the test and how it worked, just to make sure I understood correctly about not every student necessarily taking the same test because it adjusts to past scores. She said yes, and not only that but it also adjusts while they're taking the test, if they continually get answers right, the questions keep getting more difficult (which often results in material they haven't covered yet and if they get a few in a row wrong, the test will take them down yet another path, with easier questions. So what Evan had on his test was not necessarily anything like what the kid next to him had on his test.
All is well though, she was embarrassed and apologetic about making the mistake and said Evan is doing very well.
