[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The SOL tests are in a couple of weeks and there has still been no test prep other than the quarter end tests.[/quote]

Do you even know what test prep looks like?  Are you in the classroom every day?  Any teacher not preparing all year for SOL's is some form or another is going to be in big trouble.  You just don't really understand what goes on in a classroom and how the curriculum is altered and pared down to keep the focus on what's on the test and nothing else.  OR there really has been no test prep because you are in a high-income school and no one has to worry about test scores.  If so, then lucky you, but anyone with even a moderate percentage of FARM in the school is getting prepped to death.[/quote]

We are in a high income school and no one talks about these tests at all. No one cares including the teachers.[/quote]

Wow, I wish I had thought about that before we bought our house.  We have only 25% FARM, but it's still test-centered and stressful at our school.  It's so unfair.[/quote]

We were at a high income school (less than 10% farm) and the teachers/principals went ABSOLUTELY INSANE talking about the sols. My kid had stomach aches everyday and talked about the sols CONSTANYLY. I told him to quit worrying about it every day, but it didn't help.[/quote]
