Parents and caregivers,
As the State Superintendent of North Carolina’s public schools, I want you to know that your child’s success in school and beyond is our top priority. This school year, we want your input to make sure we are on the right track for students, parents, and teachers.
Today, we want to know your concerns about testing in school.
Too Much Testing!
Students, parents, and educators are concerned about too much testing. As both State Superintendent and a parent of a child in our public schools, I share your concerns.
We have already taken steps to reduce testing. Find out more by visiting this page.
We have more work to do.
Please take our 5-minute survey on testing to tell us what you think.

As an added incentive, after you take the survey, you can enter for a chance to win $250 right before your holiday shopping.
I will use your input to guide our work with state lawmakers and local school districts to reform the current system of over-testing.
We are working hard to improve our schools because every child should have the opportunity to go to safe and inviting schools, to work hard, and to succeed. Thank you for being a partner with us in this important mission.
