Oregon Department of Education has said it will accept opt-out forms with the language above the signature crossed out. That’s good, because that language is false. Our nation’s overemphasis on standardized testing has caused more harm than good. Test-and-punish practices don’t work. Download your opt-out form, cross out the misleading language, and turn it in at your school!
View our webpages “Why to Opt-Out” and “How to Opt-Out”. Thousands already have. Let’s make the movement even larger this year!
Does this also apply for the SAT tests. I’m a home school mom who just received a notice that my son must by Oregon law take his standardized achievement test. I’m am against all school state testing.

No, it doesn’t apply to SAT. Only to the statewide summative assessment (SBAC this year).
