Our children, including children at the Kindergarten level, are required to take standardized test. These test can not, do not, and will not ever assess accurately what children are learning in school. Children are individuals, treat them as such. Teach the child and stop wasting our tax dollars on standardized tests.
Why is this important?
Children as young as 5 years old are experiencing test anxiety due to standardized testing. Dallas ISD is over-testing our children. Standardized tests do not improve student achievement and are not a reliable way to measure a students or teachers abilities. My tax dollars should not be spent on standardized tests.
