EVEN MORE STANDARDIZED TESTS for NYC STUDENTS!!!

  • WHO WILL BE TESTED? ALL public school students, kindergarten through 10th grade

  • WHEN & HOW OFTEN? 3 times a year, beginning September 2021

  • The city will administer these tests IN ADDITION to the springtime state tests, Regents exams, etc.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! 

NYC Opt Out unequivocally opposes this additional burden on our students, the detraction from their learning time, and the diversion of tax dollars to testing companies. 

You have the right to refuse these tests on behalf of your child.

PLEASE SHARE THIS INFO with your school communities because most families--and even teachers--are not aware of these tests, which were stealth announced during the summer.
