I had to read the link to The Washington Post article. Recently the program we are in suggested my son take a class to prep struggling students for a test for graduation. When I read this article the results justified my position as to why I know testing is irrelevant. Especially for homeschooled children. Thank you for posting this link. I have posted on my FB page.
