Ten Days of Testing

Testing testing testing
Ten days of testing.
These aren't even nationally normed tests!
They are state tests!
What a horrible ending for our students

They will not want to return
After Memorial Day weekend
Or After the summer break
or maybe ever again...

Will their parents force them to come back
after this four-day weekend
For testing testing testing testing testing testing?
I wouldn’t.
