It will be awesome to see what university these kids will be accepted into that promises no homework AND no tests.
In related news, high schools in the area are paying close attention to what school these helicopter...err... vigilant parents want to send their kids.  |

And so, the Milleys have asked the school to review the exam policy, changing the rules so there are fewer tests, and teachers aren't overlapping each other with end-of-unit exams.
