The pandemic forced the region s colleges and K-12 schools to ditch standardized tests Some hope the change is permanent

If you wanted to understand Andre Ramsey, you wouldn t look at a test score. A test score couldn t tell you about the hardships he faced after both his parents went to prison when he was a toddler. It couldn t tell you how, as a third grader, he dreamed of going to Harvard as soon as he saw a picture of the campus. It couldn t tell you about the late nights studying, the volunteer work, the almost unfathomable number of clubs he s joined and leadership positions he s held. So when Ramsey, now a senior at Spokane s Rogers High School, applied to Harvard last year, he didn t include any SAT or ACT score. After all, Harvard suspended the requirement to do so because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Proposed bill hopes to reduce unexcused absences in WA schools

KXLY January 19, 2021 6:52 PM Elenee Dao SPOKANE, Wash. COVID-19 highlighted the disparities and barriers families face, especially for kids trying to attend school online. Districts have measures in place to help make sure students are learning. A new bill in the Washington legislature hopes to help families and districts work together to ensure that. Parents and school districts have the same goal: making sure students are healthy and learning. However, it’s hard to do that when students miss school. “It’s a two way street right, both sides need to make an effort to understand what’s happening and what are the barriers,” explained Scott Kerwien, the director of college and career readiness with Spokane Public Schools.
