[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have my own reasons for objecting to PARCC testing, thanks, in what’s supposed to be a free country. I can’t stand corporate standardized testing for elementary school-age kids. Moreover, DC is the only jurisdiction in the country that has stuck with the pure PARCC, mainly because it’s a poorly constructed test designed to rake in the dough for Pearson Education (not even an American company). A decade back, 2 dozen states were onboard with the PARCC. I like to teach my kids to act on deeply-held beliefs. No interest in starting a movement. We are entitled to be left alone where for-profit testing of little kids is concerned.[/quote] Thank you for this. I’m pro-testing but not pro-bad or over testing. I’ve been discussing about opting out vs not and talking to my educator policy friends and teacher friends. Post covid I’m 100% opting out. [/quote]
