Parental Rights

You have the right to opt your child out of state summative tests in English Language Arts and Math. (Please see below for rules associated with other state assessments.)

To opt-out of the tests, you must complete the 2023-2024 Opt-Out form and submit it to your child’s school. The opt-out form will be made available later in the school year.

Any student exempted from a state test will be provided with supervised study time while other students are testing.

Test results offer feedback about your child’s progress. The results of these tests act as a snapshot of your child’s progress and may be used along with other pieces of information to determine their strengths and areas for improvement.

Not having information on our students’ academic progress limits our ability to accurately identify where students are struggling, where they are excelling, and whether we are fulfilling our goal of narrowing achievement gaps.

By signing the opt-out form, you may lose valuable information about how well your child is progressing in English language arts and math. Opting-out may impact efforts by your school and district to equitably distribute resources and support student learning. Opt-out forms will be made available later in the testing window.
