[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]About this topic. My daughter is in 8th grade, she failed her reading SOL. She doesn't want to take it again but I am concerned that this may affect the way teachers look at her in high school. Should she retake it? [/quote] In 8th grade, yes, if you believe she could pass and does not need remediation. I’m a high school teacher and she may be placed in a class where students are reading below grade level and receive remediation. That’s great if she needs the help. It’s not good if she was having a bad day and the SOL score does not affect her ability. To the 4th grade parent, I would not have your child retest. I signed the same paper for my 4th grade child and will not have her retest if she does not pass anything. I’m sorry she found out this way. In high school teachers will tell students their scores but they are too young in elementary school for this to happen. Parents need to be notified first. [/quote]
