PARCC Forums: Speak Out Against All High-Stakes Testing

Are you an elementary or middle school educator who administered the
PARRC?  The state is seeking feedback at
a series of hearings. Attend one of a series of public forums being held by the Board of Elemenary and Secondary Education (BESE) on the
upcoming decision on whether to sunset the Massachusetts Comprehensive
Assessment System (MCAS) and adopt the Partnership for the Assessment of
College and Careers (PARCC). 

The next hearing is on May 18 at Bunker Hill Community College. Let state officials know
your views on PARCC – and on the impact of high-stakes testing in general on
your students, your school and your profession. More information is available from
the MTA 

A decision
will be made by the BESE this fall.
