[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What are some ways to advocate to reduce the amount of SOL testing? I know the SOL requirements come from Richmond (General Assembly) and I know Dels. Tag Greason and Rob Krupicka organized the successful effort to reduce the number of SOLs. http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/education/virginia-students-will-take-fewer-standards-of-learning-tests-next-year/2014/04/05/eea18666-bb46-11e3-9a05-c739f29ccb08_story.html But how can parents advocate to further reduce the number of SOLs? Why is it necessary to have 3rd grade students (as an example) take so many SOLs compared to all the other assessments already in place?[/quote] My 3rd grader will take 2 tests - Math and English. I don't think 2 tests are too many. I don't think folks want to find out in 5th grade that their kid can't read or multiply. [/quote]
