Thanks for posting this Austin! It was just what I needed to read. I particularly liked the following quote. It just seemed to speak to me right now!
The coordinator looked at the 3-years-above-level state test that my son had completed with 92% accuracy and said �never mind, he�s doing the grade 5 state test this year and those results are the ones that matter�. The point that it was an 8th grade test was lost. He was now in grade 5 and should only know grade 5 material, and anything more than that is irrelevant.
