Anxiety of state test for students grows among parents and teachers

[OrlandoDem2]

In Florida, the Republican legislature is moving forward with tests. Unbelievable. We need to have as many as possible tell the governor (DeathSantis NO TESTS!)

Thousands of Florida parents kept their children home and studying online this school year to limit their potential exposure to the coronavirus.
So news that the state will administer its usual series of standardized tests this spring and wants all students to sit for the exams — even those who have avoided being on campus — has left many of those same parents puzzled, angry and worried.

1. Another reason to vaccinate young people with the single shot

2. There has to be some way to assess where the

students are academically. Those tests are the best method they have. I don’t think they should be used to prevent students from moving to the next grade.
