Are chunk tests really needed?

By: Olivia Lefler

            Test, test, test, and more tests.  It seems like everyday you have something to study for.  Students struggle to get everything done that is needed and still have a life of their own. We are already crammed packed with reports, projects, and test.  Chunk test are just something else students have to prepare for and stress over.

            Teachers say that they are to prepare us for end of semester test.  But students say we have to take them because some of the 12th graders failed their test.  Why are we being punished for what the past 12th graders did? 

 Really we have a test every week that we have to study for and that’s not including our other homework. I know its not anything the teachers try to do.  They probably struggle themselves just to get all the material done before the end of the year. All I am saying is it help us “students” to have a better year and a better life!
