[quote=Anonymous]Even if you sign that you want your child retested, you could still reverse your decision if your child fails an SOL. You should confer with your child's teacher as a starting place. It certainly wouln't be worth it for your child to fail the same SOL twice. I would only do the retest if it was a student who was expected to pass (did well on eCARTs, etc), and if the child doesn't have anxiety issues. Also, if by looking at the score break-down (teachers and admin have access to that information), there is one particular area that is much weaker than others, that could indicate that targeted remediation may be effective. The turn-around time is so short that it wouldn't be worth it for many students to retake. [/quote]
