[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]None of the homeschooled kids I know have ever taken a standardized test. For some, that's part of the reason they homeschool their kids. The testing in public schools is excessive.[/quote] You realize there is a spectrum? I don’t necessarily think it’s that great that the kids you speak of have never been tested.[/quote] This is pretty funny… homeschoolers are in the room for SAT, PSAT, ACT, APs. In fact, these kids were the most penalized by the elimination of SAT subject tests because colleges demanded them. Lots of parents have tests administered, like ITBS. But it would be ridiculous to have elementary kids show up to take tests on Chromebooks they have never touched before. And honestly, most of us teach traditional math so those tests would be irrelevant. Choice of curriculum is kind of the point of homeschooling.[/quote]
