Paper Tests for PA Kids

As of 2026, Pennsylvania requires every PSSA and Keystone exam to be taken on a computer. That means children as young as 8 take their tests on a device, before they've even learned how to type. Unfortunately, state testing seems to influence what happens in classrooms all year, and we've all seen it: screen-based testing means more screen time during the school day. New York made the same switch and is already reconsidering. Pennsylvania should too. Add your name to ask the state to bring back paper PSSAs for grades 3-8 and to let high school students choose paper for the Keystones.

Addresses these norms:
