[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It stresses my kid out. And it's not really a test about her and what she's learned. It's a test of the school and how they did. Why should she have to get all worried and worked up about it? [/quote] So if your child got passed advanced on every SOL test, it would only be due to the school and not your child, right? Would you tell her that she got passed advanced at all?[/quote] I've been proud of her scores and shared them with her. But I don't understand your point. These tests aren't for us to validate how well she's learning. We already know that based on her grades. Uncle Sam wants these tests. Why should I allow the govt to decide to give my kid a test she would rather not take? It doesn't actually teach her anything - it actually detracts from classroom time that could be spent more productively, How is the SOL good for my child? If she'd rather not take it, why force her?
