Please see NATIONAL REFUSAL LETTER, below. You are really doing a disservice to your children, if you do not. Do not let the schools bully you. It is you Federal Parental Right to refuse all. For more information, lease visit, https://facebook/groups/CHOOSETOREFUSECOMMONCORE/ Here is my refusal letter for my son from last year. I added a little. Please copy, paste and fill in the blanks. Please send one letter to Principal and one letter to Superintendent. 9/1/14 Dear Principal _______________: We are writing today to formally inform you and the _____________ District, of our decision to REFUSE to allow our child, __________, to participate in any standardized assessments imposed on children across the state for the 2014-2015 school year. Our refusal should in no way reflect on the teachers, administration, or school board. These test are abusing our children mentally and indoctrinating our children to be anti-American and Anti-parents. Common Core is harming our children mentally, by lowering their sense of self and by breaking our childrens spirit. Our child will not participate in any assessments other than those solely used for the individual classroom teachers (diagnostic) and those that will be used to calculate _____________ report card grades. We REFUSE to allow any data to be collected in any way from our son, __________, without our permission. Any assessment, besides final exams, whose data is used to determine school ranking, teacher effectiveness, state or federal longitudinal studies or any other purpose other than for the individual classroom teacher’s own use to improve his or her instruction, may not be presented to our child. Therefore, our son, __________ will not participate in the following: -Any questionnaires given by the school or any other while in school. All questionnaires need to be approved by me, the parent. -Any State Assessment -Any benchmark exams / pre–assessments connected to “Student Learning Objectives” -Any surveys, or “field tests” given by corporate or government entities or testing companies -Any exam used to formulate an evaluation or score for ______s teachers or school, other than the final exams for each subject area. We believe in and trust our highly qualified and dedicated teachers and administrators. We believe in the high quality of teaching and learning that occurs at _________________. We hope our efforts will be understood within the context in which they are intended: to support the quality of instruction promoted by __________________ and to advocate for what is best for all children, approved by us, the parents. We anticipate that our son, __________, will be treated fairly during assessment periods, as this was not his decision, but ours, as his parents. Since the benchmark assessments will be taking place early in the school year, please inform us as to the plan for Adam during the time when the assessments will take place. We do apologize in advance for the inconvenience to the administration, the faculty, and staff. Sincerely, ___________________________________
