CEC 20 says no to field testing
District 20s Community Education Council unanimously passed a resolution on May 23 supporting parents concerns about New York States stand-alone field tests.
The field tests are assigned to third through twelfth graders throughout the state, at different times throughout the months of May and June. Some groups will test math and some groups will test ELA tests.
They are testing the test questions. They dont count for schools or students, explained Laurie Windsor, president of CEC District 20. But I think the clincher was that the recent tests with ELA and math included field questions already.
