GARRETT â ILearn testing at Garrett has been met with little enthusiasm, according to J.E. Ober and middle school administrators.
Elementary Principal Kristi Surfus told school board members Monday the new state test is being administered as required, but the results will be stale by the time they are available at the end of the school year.
âThis test does not honor studentsâ thinking,â she said, adding teachers currently can pull up-to-the-minute data without the test. Classroom schedules have been interrupted in order to facilitate the testing that has no time restrictions. Testing has been taking place over multiple days, she added.
