State Board of Education prepares schools for testing changes

A new standardized testing system is coming to schools in 2014 that will affect the way your child takes tests. 

Ohio Board of Education member Tess Elshoff spoke last week at the Republican Central Committee meeting about the future changes. Standardized tests will now be taken by students online. 

State education board members are gearing up to speak around the state about the new process, and how it will affect the school systems.

Board members are hoping to cover all bases by meeting with school and community groups, while also talking with parents about the upcoming changes.
