[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I signed it, but said no to retakes.

Just wondering if this will impact the way she's "labeled" in school from here on out.[/quote]

I might ask the school if it's possible to change your earlier no to a  yes, if you are concerned that failing will affect her class placement next year, etc. If you now want a retake, I would ask that question ASAP as kids are now in the middle of the SOL testing time and the window is very small. The school might say that ship has sailed and you can't change the choice at this point; I would assume that's what they'll say, but you can at least ask if you're really concerned. I would also just ask her teacher what you've asked here, whether the failing mark affects how she's seen or "tracked." You might find that there aren't many consequences or labeling that will come out of this, especially when it's clear that she was so close to passing anyway. Next time I'd always leave the retake option open on all SOLs, just in case.

Would like to hear some teachers reply to this question....[/quote]
