National Center for Fair and Open Testing (FairTest)

The National Center for Fair and Open Testing, commonly known as FairTest, is an organization that advocates for fair testing practices in education. It promotes transparency and equity in standardized testing, arguing that such tests should not be the primary measure of student abilities or school performance. FairTest provides resources for educators, parents, and policymakers to understand the limitations of standardized tests and supports efforts to create more inclusive and effective assessment methods. The organization seeks to reform testing policies to ensure that all students have equal opportunities to succeed.
