[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Believe it or not, every DCPS principal doesn't give parents who decide to opt out a hard time.  Ours, at a JKLM, lets the kids who are being opted out sit in the library during testing blocks, supervised by the librarian.  The opt out kids aren't chased down later for make-up tests.

If you put the opt-out test in writing to the principal and lead testing admin well in advance, you may be surprised to find that your head of school will work with you (even if s/he disagrees with you), no questions asked.  It's a bit late this year, but if you really want to opt out, just do it.

Good one. As if a principal wants to argue with a high SES snowflake parent from JKLM, as the principal has a choice once the parent shows up. "No questions asked". Yeah, tie me to the tree and tell me I'm free to go and that you are not holding me back.
OP, my low SES kid makes JKLM look good thanks to his high Parcc scores. He can take the test for your kid too.[/quote]

Um, we're opting our dark-skinned children out without difficulty, at Lafayette.  They don't have any unexcused absences currently, and won't have any after PARCC testing is done. Thank you.[/quote]

Well my dark skinned kid at Lafayette is carrying the weight and completing the test to bring up the average for other minority children. You’re welcome.[/quote]
