[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone know if the recent wave of undocumented children have to take the tests[/quote] Any student who is new to the US after May 30 is exempt from the Reading test for the following spring. This exemption only applies to Reading. For math, everyone takes it regardless of whether you speak English, whether you've been in the US your whole life or whether you just got here. If a kid shows up a week before the SOL, he/she has to sit for the math test. Yeah, it makes no sense. A kid who doesn't speak a word of English is expected to understand math word problems. [/quote] Math is the universal language, or is that love[/quote] It's love. :P [/quote] Yup word problems and directions are so easy to read in a foreign language. Especially if you use different numerals. [/quote]
