[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've never understood why parents object to their child retaking a test. If it is borderline, why wouldn't you be having a conference to discuss why this happened? They are easy tests. Couldn't this lead to more help during the end of the year and more help the following year? Also, why would you want your child to have a failing record if there was a chance they could pass the test?[/quote] I'm a high school teacher and SOLs do not matter until graduation requirements. I signed to prevent my own elementary aged children from retaking any if they do not pass. I am not planning on giving them the scores when we eventually find out even if they score a 600. I do not like to focus on tests. They do enough of that in school. In high school teachers know almost immediately and are allowed to tell the students. I do not know why they wait in elementary school. [/quote]
