I learned from my dd today that they evaluated her today without asking me nor informing me. From what my dd describes it sounds like they did the Key Math assesment again. It wasn't a basic pencil and paper test. Are they allowed to test like this without permission and warning?
I'll be interested to hear what others say, but where I am (UK) I'm pretty sure they are. There's no hard-and-fast line separating the ordinary assessments they do all the time to support learning (i.e., class tests!) and more specialised testing like this; by sending your child to the school you are deemed to have consented. But it's the kind of thing that could easily be different from place to place. Are you concerned? Sounds on the face of it as though it would have been a good thing that they'd been considering where she's at again.
