[quote=Anonymous]My kids are at Glebe (2nd and 4th) in APS, and I don't find that they teach to the test all that much. The content is certainly focused on SOL tested material, but they also do a lot of critical thinking, projects, etc. It is not all drill and practice. And there has not been a lot of stress about the SOLs that start this week other than get rest, have a good breakfast, and show up on time. That said, I work in a high school and I do see that there is much more focus on SOLs and teaching to the test - mostly because the kids need to pass their SOL tests in order graduated. [/quote]
