Why should you send this letter to your lawmaker?  Sec. John King is violating the spirit of ESSA and attempting to use it to punish parents who choose to opt their children out of High Stakes Testing. The regulations he has written for ESSA would punish any school that had UNDER 95% participation in toxic testing.  So, send your letter today and tell your federal lawmaker to tell John King to respect the rights of parents to opt their children out of toxic testing!
