White Plains Parents to Unite with Scarsdale Parents to Protest the Tests Posted on Wednesday, March 06 @ 15:42:40 EST by jfbailey

Schools

Drivetime Edition, Filed By Mary Cavallero, 3/6/02, 3:45 PM EST:This year, our Eighth Graders will be taking 5 seperate state-mandated tests. If you feel the burden created by this many tests is excessive please try to attend a rally organized by the Scarsdale Middle School PTA to speak out against state-mandated testing. The rally is scheduled for this Thursday, March 7th, from 8:30-9:30 a.m. at the Scarsdale Middle School.

Parking at the School is limited, so interested White Plains parents will meet at the Recreation Department parking lot on Gedney Way (next to Gillie Park) at 8:00 a.m. and will car pool from there. Speakers at the rally will include NYS Assembly Representatives, the Scarsdale School Superintendent and Parents.

Scarsdale Middle School is on Mamaroneck Rd. (not Old Mamaroneck Rd.) From White Plains - Take Hartsdale Av. which becomes Garden and make a left when Garden ends onto Mamaroneck Rd.

Bring signs

If you go, you might want to bring a sign - "White Plains Parent says No to 5 STATE TESTS." 0r, "White Plains Parent says No to state mandated tests." The idea is to let the media know that it's just not Scarsdale that's opposed to the tests.
