[TNS-list] Opting out of the state tests

[Britt Hamre]

Dear Families,

As Dyanthe mentioned earlier this morning, the testing season is upon us
once again. I thought I would share my op-ed
<https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/answer-sheet/wp/2015/04/06/opting-haven-out-of-the-state-mandated-tests-is-our-familys-act-of-civil-disobedience/>
published in the Washington Post last year. In the past year, as I learn
more about the business of testing, my commitments have solidified
regarding taking a stand against these standardized evaluations.

Best, Britt Hamre (mom to Haven-4th grade, now with Desmond and Hannah)
