[quote=Anonymous]Earlier this week, MCPS administered the SAT to all high school juniors. Students who opted not to take the test were given the option to take a free voucher to take the ACT on their own time. I'm just curious as to what all of you think of having your tax dollars go toward this initiative. I personally have reservations about it. Though I understand that MCPS is trying to increase access to the test to students who might not otherwise take it, it also bothers me that we are spending a great deal of school time and ample $$ to give this test during the school day. I feel that students who wish to go to college should show some initiative to do so. Signing up for, paying for (or showing need and obtaining funding for), and scheduling and taking the SAT outside of school are one way that students can do this. Thoughts?[/quote]
