[quote=Anonymous]If you care about your home value and you think your kid will pass, you shouldn't opt out. If you think your kid will fail, then PLEASE--- opt out! The rest of us know that test scores do affect home values. Like it or not. I don't think the tests are that big of a deal. I want my kids to be able to show what they've learned all year (or at least the parts that are on the test). They have pride in knowing that they've passed. DD (who was about to flunk out of adv. math last spring) was especially proud when she surprised everyone (including herself) by getting adv. pass on the dang math SOL! (It was only b/c I was alerted at interims that I worked with her on the practice tests and that's what brought her up from failing to adv. pass in 6 weeks). She is still proud of herself for that.
