Participating in PARCC Field Testing

 

 
Dear parents,
 
NFB is currently investigating the accessibility features available for the
spring 2014 PARCC Field Tests.  School districts were notified in September
2013 whether or not they would be included in the testing.  If your child is
scheduled to participate in either the PARCC Performance-Based Assessment or
End-of-Year Assessment, NFB needs to hear from you. 
 
Please call Valerie Yingling, paralegal, at 410-659-9314 x 2440 by Thursday,
December 5th if your child will participate in the testing.  If you are
unsure of whether or not your child will be involved, ask your school's
principal.  If your child will not be included in the testing because
accessible test features will not be available, please, also call Valerie
Yingling.
 
PARCC field tests will be conducted in the following states and district:
Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, District of Columbia, Florida, Illinois,
Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Mississippi, New Jersey, New Mexico, New
York, Ohio, Rhode Island, and Tennessee.
