Parents, students and teachers have not been shy about their frustrations regarding the latest standardized testing, scheduled to launch in March, and now high schools across the state are making sacrifices in order to fit the new exams into their calendars.

Adults and kids alike continue to voice displeasure over the large number of tests students are required to take in school, in particular the "Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers" exam all students in grades 3 through 11 are required to take this spring.

Students in hundreds of schools across the state have been participating in a test run of the new assessment exam that should officially launch during the next school year.
