Defending Public
Education from

Had Enough?
Local students take up to
116 standardized tests
before they graduate.
• Smarter Balanced test reports arrive
too late for teachers to use.
• They cost at least $27.5 million and
2-6 weeks of instruction time.
• Studies show these tests aren’t valid
measures and colleges don’t use
them for admissions.
• Schools are pressured to teach to the
test and minimize untested subjects.
• The Springfi eld School Board urges
parents to opt-out.
Opt-Out.
Oregon law allows it.
Contact your school
for opt-out forms.
Your Child is More
Than a Score.
Show the giant testing
corporations you know whatʻs
best for your kids.
