I just found out that we are state testing this year. I am rather surprised.

How exactly will that work? What of the students at home? They'll take the test from home? What an utter waste of time and energy.

Same here. HS students who are supposed to test midyear will be allowed to put it off until June if they have reservations about coming in now. The whole thing is truly absurd. It's all about finding a way to place blame. Our state board has refused to lower the weight of the exams on student grades, but some districts are finding ways around it (for example, setting a minimum grade of 80 or 90 on the exam.)
