FAQ
How can I opt out my child? Send the principal a letter saying you don't want your child to take the test. For example: “Dear —, I have asked my child, name, not to take part in the name the exam this year.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS “OPTING OUT” OF STATE TESTING Texas City ISD fully respects and acknowledges requests to have students opt out of STAAR testing; however, under state and federal laws, the district is unable to honor this type of request because it is not an option offered in Texas.
It could be as basic as: “I want to let you know we do not want our child, name, to take part in the name the standardized exam this year. Please arrange for him or her to have a productive educational experience during the testing period.”Some states or districts have specific forms.
The state of Texas requires that students pass (or substitute criteria) 5 STAAR exams (3 in 9th, Eng II in 10th and US History in 11th) in order to graduate. A high school student can opt out of STAAR and still graduate if they qualify for a combination of substitute assessments, IGC and other options.
4) What are the consequences for not completing state testing? If a student attends class but refuses to take the STAAR or STAAR EOC test, the test MUST still be scored, as required by the Texas Education Agency. Students who refuse to take the End-of-Course (EOC) exams in high school may not be able to graduate.
All students enrolled in Texas public schools and open-enrollment charter schools in grades 3–8 and specific high school courses are required by both federal and state law to participate in STAAR.
"There is no parental opt-out for STAAR assessments. Federal and state laws require that all eligible students participate in STAAR.
No. State law makes it clear that students may not opt-out of tests, including standardized tests. The complete Texas Education Code section 26.010 states: EXEMPTION FROM INSTRUCTION.
