[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unfortunately, there are very real consequences for schools if the results aren't good, due to No Child Left Behind, and so therefore they have to make a big deal out of it. It turns into a lot of ridiculous things-like having MSA "pep rallies" for elementary school students and offering incentives for students who complete extra prep packets (like ice cream or pizza parties or prizes for kids who complete and turn them in).[/quote] It's ridiculous, but not entirely unexpected, that the MSAs have become such an event, and my kid is also one of the ones who gets stressed out by it. Wish this much energy went into the rest of the curriculum.[/quote]
