[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your child will be pulled out to retake a test he has already taken. [b]Why put your child in the position of having all his friends know he failed the first time and so has to retake[/b]. [/quote] My DD was in an after school "remediation" class for weeks prior to the SOLs. Apparently, they did some kind of assessment and were concerned she might not pass. Was I supposed to turn it down because her friends might find out and she'd feel humiliated by it? Heck no. All her friends were in the same class. She had a great time. And if she still doesn't pass the SOL and they want her to re-test, they have my blessing. We've always told our kids that the SOLs are a reflection on the school's teaching methods rather than the students' ability. It's all smoke and mirrors.[/quote] Why would you want your kid to miss core instruction to re-take a test that has no benefit to her whatsoever??? [/quote]
