The emails pouring in about how worn out these kids are already is just heartbreaking because three weeks of straight testing is honestly such a massive ask for anyone let alone a middle or high schooler. I have been trying to get a straight answer out of anyone at the department office but it feels like shouting into a void which only makes me want to push harder for some actual breathing room in the schedule.

I really never thought this would gain this much steam but here we are and it just feels surreal that so many people agree the scheduling is just totally exhausting for the kids. It feels like we are actually hitting a nerve now because honestly three weeks of straight testing is just too much to ask of anyone and I am feeling so energized by how quickly this is taking off.

Ridiculous. Let the teachers teach instead of just proctoring tests all month long.
Total burnout. Common sense says spread them out so they can actually show what they know instead of just being zombies.

3 weeks is way too much for kids to handle. my son is already stressed out enough without this back to back schedule.
