PAVURSOL is an internet-based, growing grassroots network of over 5,800 parents, grandparents and concerned citizens who want to ensure that the standards and assessments used with our children are educationally defensible. As parents, grandparents and supporters of school-aged children, we recognize the need for ensuring that all students acquire the knowledge and skills needed for success in school and beyond. However, we believe that our current "one-size-fits-all" SOL system will fail to accomplish this and will hurt, not help, students, schools, and communities.

Standards of Learning (SOLs) During fifth grade, students participate in Virginia state assessments, Standards of Learning tests. The fifth grade teachers are committed to preparing students for this significant test. Fifth graders have SOL test prepping sessions once a week that teach students strategies for taking a standardized test. There is an after school SOL Remediation class that begins in February for students to receive extra reinforcement of their everyday skills. The fifth grade teachers are also available after school two days a week for students that are having difficuty in a subject area. Students complete a state assessment in English through the Direct Writing test given in March.

Baby Superstore The Value of Learning by John Boleyn I understand why Gov. James Gilmore has instituted Standards of Learning tests for students in Virginia. In an era of ever declining academic performance, there is the need to see their performance levels increased. And as the chief executive of the commonwealth, he has the responsibility to ensure that this problem is addressed. But what if the problem is much larger than the solution of the SOLs? Does our education establishment know how the skills of learning are developed in the first place? Obviously, this is not a problem which can be solved entirely by Gov. Gilmore or by any Governor whether they are a Democrat or Republican. Can the Standards of Learning tests and the preparation for these tests empower our kids to learn? The way in which we test or examine students and the way in which we grade them determines what teachers teach and how they teach and what students learn and how they learn.

17. Legislators Are Always Going Back To School On SOLs Every year, it seems, the General Assembly struggles with the state s standards of learning the basic skills tests that determine whether students http://www.people.vcu.edu/~jcsouth/on-the-lege/sols.htm

Legislators are always going back to school on SOLs By Geoffrey Rowland It is an issue that will not disappear. Every year, it seems, the General Assembly struggles with the state's Standards of Learning the basic skills tests that determine whether students may graduate and whether schools are accredited. This year turned out to be no exception. And the legislators have already insured that the SOLs will be on their agenda for the 2003 session. The specific issue, to be considered next session, is a bill that would reduce the value of the SOL tests on gaining accreditation. This bill would allow the commonwealth to consider other factors, such as the dropout rate, when determining whether a school should be accredited. Delegate L. Karen Darner, D-Arlington, is sponsoring the proposal, one of many SOL bills before the House and Senate this session. Darner has asked that her legislation be continued to the next session. "There is a new federal law that has a large portion on accreditation of schools," Darner said. "This law does not go into place until next year, so we feel that it is probably better to wait until next years session to try the bill again." The bill is designed to help schools that may have lower Standards of Learning test scores than other schools have a possibility of receiving accreditation by doing other things. Right now, the decision on whether or not a school in the state of Virginia is accredited is completely correlated to the scores that the students of that school receive on the Standards of Learning tests.

"In June 1995, the Virginia Board of Education approved Standards of Learning (SOL) in four core content areas - mathematics, science, English, and history and the social sciences - and in computer technology. In September 1997, the Board of Education established new Standards for Accrediting Public Schools in Virginia (SOA) that link statewide accountability tests to the SOL and hold students, schools, and school divisions accountable for results."

SOL Test Results: For four consecutive years, Asbury Elementary has been recognized for outstanding academic achievement and educational leadership by the governor of Virginia for attaining the status of "fully accredited" by passing all areas of the Virginia Standards of Learning tests. The fifth grade writing test is administered in March. All other tests are administered to third and fifth grade students in May.

The information and feedback from these tests helps the faculty and staff at Asbury to get a solid picture of students and grade level academic progress. Without this information, important adjustments to our curriculum and instructional decisions in the classroom that aid our students in their daily task of learning would be difficult. Our goal is always to provide a meaningful and effective instructional program and the testing data allows us to effectively achieve this goal by individualizing instruction.
