[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Absolutely true! Letters to he Chancellor or talking to the teacher will do absolutely nothing. But when all of a sudden a third or half of a school's student population refuses to take the test. Then the test does not become a meaningful "data point" for anything. The more people Opt out the more of a real statement is made. And you know what - politicians legislators business education officials - will then take notice. When they know their constituents are furious things will change. Hold them accountable! When half of the class doesn't take the test you can't really evaluate a teacher on scores. The whole situation begins to change. [/quote]when the  Chancellor  gets 16000 emails referencing  Parcc  likely that gets attention.Or  hits on twitter. Encouraging 'people in the know' to create  new tests is for those  posters who say they know respected  leaders in academe or child development  who don't  approve of the  tests.  Since the posters know the names and provenance  of the experts, surely they can send an email  via a publisher or to the institution  where these experts work?[/quote]
