[quote=Anonymous]The screen stuff and testing stuff is largely state and county controlled, not school. MCPS/Maryland have LOTS of testing, and LOTS of screens. We have been very happy in MCPS and our child attended TPES, PBES, and TPMS and is not in 11th grade across the county. But our child actually likes testing and we never banned screens. If you feel very strongly about this you will run into issues in public school because so so so much of what they do is on the computer, even in early grades. You can opt out of testing, but I would discourage that because it eliminates gifted screening and things like that. It'll also peg your kid as "other" when they are constantly removed and their content/delivery won't change. You probably just need to get used to it. It sounds like you're more anti rat race. If that's the case, you're in the wrong county!!!!![/quote]
