This pandemic has really took a toll on many peoples lives. Teachers have been working so hard to provide an education to every single student. They are teaching students online and in person. They should not have to risk their lives going into school to have kids take standardized tests.

Standardized tests should not be going on during the pandemic. The pandemic has taken a large toll on students grades. Standardized tests will show what we already know, students are behind. Standardized tests are not an accurate way to show performance levels of students. It causes additional stress and anxiety for students and it becomes their main focus.

Sign this petition so we can make a change and abandon standardized testing for the sake of students and teachers.

I am reading through your messages and feeling truly overwhelmed by how many people share this concern for our classrooms. None of this would be happening without the stories you are choosing to share with me.

I am honestly overwhelmed by how many of you feel the same way about these tests. It is clear that this weight is being felt by so many people and I am just glad we found a way to talk about it together.

This is total nonsense. Kids are burnt out enough as it is.

Teachers cant even teach properly right now so how can they be expected to test kids? Leave them alone.

Ridiculous to think this is the priority during a global pandemic. Focus on health not numbers on a test.

Testing is useless and just stresses everyone out when they are already struggling with remote school.
