PARCC Testing Letter-Writing Event

[Betsy Voinovich]

If you read the post regarding parents' frustration with the PARCC Testing you know that there's a letter writing event scheduled tomorrow from 4 to 7pm at the Sweet Spot which is at 17806 Detroit Rd. across from the Beck Center.

From the site:

Join us for a letter writing event to tell local, regional and state representatives your concerns and opinions regarding the new high stakes standardized testing protocols in our schools.

We will have names and addresses, email addresses, sample letters, and general information for you to use to write letters to our elected officials.

No time to stay and write a letter? Pick up resources to take home.

If you don't know anything about these tests but are concerned, this would be a good time to find out. If you have no intention of opting out but want to make your concerns known to our representatives, this is also a good place to get addresses and talk about what can happen in the future.

For more about this issue, see the PARCC Frustration Post: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=13193

No better place to talk about this than a place where you can also eat Dark Chocolate with Sea Salt and Cinnamon Caramel Swirl gelato on a blustery day.
