They’re canceling standardized testing here. There’s not much point if you know it’s gonna be bad compared to other years, and there’s little you can learn from the details of the failure to apply to the next years. They already know “have a better quarantine plan” is he answer for this time (though arguably uncommon enough that the right amount of time and money to spend fixing it is zero). No need to test, and anyway they may not be back in classrooms to do it. [edit] though yeah, future years’ testing may tell us something. However, since it’s happening to all grades, and given how often other factors change that make results incommensurate, it’ll be tough to pull anything useful out of the numbers.
