MTS parents and guardians of students need to opt-out of PARCC testing! By banning together as a community, we have the final say about what standards our own children should and should not be held accountable to. I don't know about you, but I don't endorse the systematic conformity of our youth. I cherish my child's uniqueness. Therefore, I must set an example for him and teach him how to rage against the machine that has become education. It's time to "take the power back" and lead by example. "Conformity is the jailer of freedom and the enemy of growth." - John F. Kennedy
