The new standardized test PARCC has caused many issues. Many academic days have been wasted on these tests, when Colorado children could be studying and learning different and more important material. This test has also caused large amounts of stress, to both teachers and students. There has not been one positive review on these tests, and these tests will not be accurate for Colorado statistics because of students opting out or giving purposefully inaccurate answers in protest. Please do not use this test again, as a Colorado Student, I prefer CSAP or TCAP, paper tests which we have been taking since Elementary school.
Dear Colorado Department of Education,
The new standardized test PARCC has caused many issues. Many academic days have been wasted on these tests, when Colorado children could be studying and learning different and more important material. This test has also caused large amounts of stress, to both teachers and students. There has not been one positive review on these tests, and these tests will not be accurate for Colorado statistics because of students opting out or giving purposefully inaccurate answers in protest. Please do not use this test again, as a Colorado Student, I prefer CSAP or TCAP, paper tests which we have been taking since Elementary school.
Thank you.
