[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your arguments don't do it for me. Go with a poor-quality, arguably punishing, 10-hour-long test that more than 20 states have either ditched or reworked in the last decade because, well, it's the best DC can do in the wake of pandemic school closures. I think the best we can do by the kids is push to ditch the PARCC, including by opting out as individual families. If ed stakeholders don't challenge, the lousy PARCC won't be exiting the stage in the District anytime soon. Name a problem that went away because almost everybody hurt by rolled with it indefinitely. [/quote] This. The only way it will shift is if we (parents) demand one. Opt OUT! The PARCC is not for kids, its for $$$$. Teachers dont get the data in time to use it, families cant use it for admissions or anything else, schools cant use the data to make choices ( hiring decisions, remediation, curriculum design) PARCC does not deliver strand data to the schools either.[/quote]
