[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So to be candid with you one of the reasons I'm opting out is that there's been no information from anywhere about the integrated reading and writing test. DC has passed with flying colors both years. There has only been one math test online this year which is not enough practice. I'm just concerned that the scores will be far below The usual. I'm not blaming the school about the integrated reading and writing test, I'm not seeing any information about that anywhere. It seems unfair that these kids will be the guinea pigs for a test that Teacher statewide seem to have limited information about. Lastly we have a teacher that's new to the state and I don't believe that the science review will be enough to cover eight quarters. Maybe I'm overreacting but I just feel like with this being such a big year and the review not matching I think we will sit this one out. I do agree about test practice and we will take it next year. We've done third and fourth grade.[/quote]

There is only one ES test score that is important for a student and that is their 6th grade SOL if they are in Advanced Math or a LIV classroom. I suppose a student whose parents might refer for AAP the next year might be worried because SOLs are a part of the packet for 4th and above.

So why does it matter to you if he passes or fails? And what makes you think he will struggle or do poorly on the test in the first place? If his grades are fine he should do fine on the exam.
