[quote=Anonymous]At our school the middle school class schedule was reversed every other day for something like 2 weeks for the PARCC testing. It throws kids off. It can be hard for kids to learn at their best when the whole day is changed around (and they are not wasting time taking endless long tests). When I was a kid the state assessments took a day or may be 2 tops. Why less time? Because we weren't required to write essay after essay to demonstrate our knowledge. Think about the other side. Some huge number of staff are actually going to read and score all of these essays. Staff at Pearson. Imagine the labor cost that we are paying for this. [/quote]
