[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"LMAO! It is the anti-testing folks who are engaging in those very tactics, of clouding the facts, ignoring relevant FACTS, and now introducing an imagined bogeyman wanting other posters to believe that there's a "Common Core PR team" operating here."

+million.  We are almost through with elementary school and I have yet to see signs of any "high stakes testing," and the same is true with my friends who have kids at other public schools.

I also don't understand the harm of having one's child take the PARCC.  It's a learning experience, regardless of whether it is a good assessment, and the results are not going to determine a child's future.  In fact, there's no need for a child to know how s/he performed.

Once again focused on your own kids and not the effect a bad test with bogus results applied in a non-valid way to high-stakes decisions will have on public education in general.  This is not about YOUR kids--who aren't even in the mix because ether have already finished their primary education ahead of these changes ( supposedly ).[/quote]
