By Taylor Mullaney<\/p>\n

After the first week of state-mandated PARCC academic testing, some parents are speaking out for the right to exclude their children from taking the examination.<\/p>\n

The Illinois State Board of Education<\/a> provided a Frequently Asked Questions<\/a> sheet about PARCC on its website in January. As to whether individual students or parents can opt out of PARCC assessments, ISBE states:<\/p>\n

\u201c<\/strong>No. Districts can develop a policy for those students who refuse to take assessments on testing days, but federal and state law does not provide for any opt-out provisions.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cIf fewer than 95 percent of students in a district take the assessment,\u201d the statement continues, \u201cThe district will automatically fail to meet their accountability obligations and be at risk of losing federal funding, hurting our schools and ultimately all of our students.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kylie Spahn, a Downers Grove parent, said she feels her parental role is being diminished.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe burden of refusal on our children is not acceptable,\u201d said Spahn, mother of two daughters. \u201cWhat I say should go\u2026I\u2019m a loving, caring, dedicated parent, and I know what\u2019s best for my kids. And this test isn\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n

The PARCC<\/a>, Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers, is an examination that tests new Illinois Common Core standards<\/a>. The testing window during which schools must administer PARCC began March 9 in many districts throughout the state.<\/p>\n

Amanda Simhauser, spokeswoman at ISBE, said she was personally unaware of statistics about children and families who have opted out in the past. She added that districts have jurisdiction over how to handle children who refuse to take the exam.<\/p>\n

Spahn, whose daughters attend school in District 58, said she was happy with how the district administered the exam last week.<\/p>\n

\u201cDistrict 58 has been exceptionally good with treating our kids with kindness and respect,\u201d Spahn said. \u201cThey have been incredibly supportive.\u201d<\/p>\n

Spahn said that after much research, she decided taking PARCC would not be in her daughters\u2019 best interests. Spahn added this issue has become increasingly important to her not only as a parent, but also as a Downers Grove citizen.<\/p>\n

\u201cI started out as a really angry mom with my little protest sign saying, \u2018I refuse the PARCC,\u2019 standing out in front of my kids\u2019 school, to now trying to put pressure on our politicians,\u201d Spahn said.<\/p>\n

Simhauser, however, said the exam provides many benefits to children that were not available through previous standardized testing.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe PARCC assessments are requiring students to think more critically, provide evidence to back up their answers,\u201d Simhauser said. \u201cSo it\u2019s really focused on applying knowledge and real world learning, higher order thinking, as opposed to just regurgitating memorized facts. And those are all skills that\u2026go a long way toward closing the achievement gap.\u201d<\/p>\n

Amy Pokras, parent of an 8th<\/sup> grade daughter in Oak Park, said she is not certain the PARCC exam can measure the skills Common Core aims to teach.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe things Common Core emphasizes\u2014which are creative thinking, independent learning, analysis of different materials\u2014there\u2019s no way that can be measured in a standardized test,\u201d Pokras said.<\/p>\n

Pokras\u2019 14-year-old daughter approached her parents about not taking the exam after seeing sample questions, which prompted Pokras to investigate PARCC. After much research, Pokras said, she ultimately decided the test would be redundant for her daughter, who will take other standardized tests as an 8th<\/sup> grade student.<\/p>\n

Pokras said she is opposed to policy in District 97, where her daughter attends school, that students must \u201csit and stare\u201d if they refuse to take the test, meaning that they may not read or work on other assignments during testing.<\/p>\n

Sergio Hernandez, father of three children in Oak Park, shares Pokras\u2019 frustration about the \u201csit and stare\u201d policy. He said he also takes issue with the exam itself.<\/p>\n

As an early childhood educator, Hernandez said he is especially concerned about problems the test might pose for students with learning disabilities, English language learners and students in other disadvantaged situations.<\/p>\n

Hernandez said he would advocate for an exam that tests not only cognitive but also interpersonal skills.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re missing the whole social-emotional piece, which actually helps determine whether kids will succeed in life,\u201d Hernandez said. \u201cAre they able to work in groups? Are they able to work in collaboration? Are they able to be critical thinkers? I don\u2019t think PARCC is there yet.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hernandez said he is not against academic testing altogether and understands that it is necessary as kids continue to college and careers. But he said he also believes there must be boundaries. He said he hopes the opt out movement, which he considers civil disobedience, will promote parents\u2019 rights to make more autonomous decisions about their children\u2019s education.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor me, this is a justice issue,\u201d Hernandez said. \u201cThis is a personal rights issue\u2026there is value in testing, but not at the expense of children\u2019s curiosity and love of learning.\u201d<\/p>\n
