[quote=Anonymous]I know SOLs are important for benchmarking and showing progress across the student body, but I always assumed they were MINIMUM standards, and that basically by being normal teachers and having a more or less normal curriculum the SOLs were covered. But an older mom at our elementary was saying she has been really disappointed in science instruction at our school and feels part of the lack of emphasis is because SOL science is only at 5th and 8th grade. How much does “teaching to SOL” really go into developing curriculum? I assumed it was just a small baseline; maybe it’s just our school is more into arts than science or something?[/quote]
