[quote=Anonymous]Former teacher here. I get the impression that not all parents are upset about the tests themselves as much as they are upset about the amount of prep being done to get ready for the tests. And, I also think that some teachers and schools go WAAAYYYY overboard on the prep. Much more appropriate to prep little bits along the way from the start of the school year instead of spending months (yes, months) getting kids ready for this series of tests. And, if done right, kids don’t even know it is test preparation. Just authentically assessing students. It is a waste of instructional time and doing so much prep in March, April, and May tends to stress kids. [/quote]
