[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't get why PPs slam parents who've decided to opt out for whatever reasons. I also don't understand why school admins and OSSE officials tend to beat up on these folks. DC makes opting out difficult to pull off, even if school admins are willing to work with parents who opt out. This helps explain why very few DC public school families currently opt out. EotP, the number is tiny. Moreover, unless a more than 5% of the students in a particular DC public school fail to take the test, the school's PARCC scores are not impacted in any way. This has never happened in the District, and, by the sounds of it, never will. [/quote] Because the Council has not approved opting-out (other states have). School admins are not allowed to "work with" parents who want to opt out (although a few do). If it becomes known that they are, the central office will try and shut that down.[/quote]
