Parents and their children rally against Common Core testing and urge other parents to opt-out, in Prospect Park in Brooklyn in New York on Tuesday, April 21, 2015. The federally mandated tests are raising the ire of many parents for various reasons including wasting classroom time and the movement to tie teachers' performance to the test results. Almost 175,000 students have opted-out in New York State according to anti-testing advocates. (© Richard B. Levine)
