Oregon can do better! Let's require ALL schools to implement federally legislated parental notification of what the Armed Services Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) REALLY is, along with annual parental opt-out provisions.
Why is this important?
When a series of FOIAs were initiated to track nationwide testing of the Armed Services Aptitude Battery (ASVAB),it was found that Oregon is leading all other states with Opt-Out compliance (63% vs. 12%, national average). However,,various individual Oregon schools were found to be in apparent non-compliance with existing Federal law. This data found that 19% of these schools not only mandate such testing, but automatically release all test results to recruiters in violation of federal parental opt-out requirements.
