The students would then
have to go through the process
oI logging back on to the test
only to see the same thing hap-
pen.
At one point the students
were sent back to their regular
class, then called back to try
the testing again. Once they
were on the testing site it
would crash about every 2-3
questions causing the students
to go through the whole proc-
ess again.
Fortunately the test answers
Ior each student were saved
each time their computer
would crash, but it was very
Irustrating to both the teachers
and students at this point.
We limped through the
test, Gahagan added, but it
was so frustrating.
CTB/McGraw Hill was in
charge oI the testing site and
had been paid $14million to set
it up Ior our students. This is
the second year in a row that
this same thing happened just
as the students were getting
ready to test. Superintendent
Janet Barresi blamed the indi-
vidual school districts Ior last
year s pr oblems. CTB/
McGraw Hill held a news con-
Ierence late Monday and
indicated a piece of hardware
malIunctioned and caused in-
termittent disruptions.
State lawmakers were quick
to jump in with their com-
ments.
The State Department of
Education paid $12 million Ior
this testing system, said state
Rep. Jerry McPeak, a retired
school teacher. It didnt work
last year and its not working
today. Youd think someone at
the Department oI Education
would get the message, the
Warner Democrat said.
Shortly aIter 10 a.m. Mon-
day the State Department oI
Education advised in an email
sent to school district test coor-
dinators and technology coor-
dinators that the Oklahoma
Online Test Delivery Client is
experiencing an outage that is
affecting some sites. A hyper-
link directing queries to the
CTB OK web portal reported
that the outage affected a high
number of sites.
Less than an hour later,
school oIIicials statewide were
notified that, As a result of
online testing disruptions Ior
students in grades 6-8 and end-
oI-instruction State Superin-
tendent Janet Barresi has di-
rected testing vendor CTB/
McGraw Hill to suspend online
testing for today.
The Oklahoma Education
Association issued a statement
that read in part, Earlier this
morning, more than 8,000 stu-
dents in grades 6-12 were
abruptlv interrupted during high
-stakes testing due to what Supt.
Barresi is now saving is the fault
of CTB McGraw Hill testing
vendor. Barresi and the State
Board of Education (SBE) re-

Hill for $13,539,214 million
after the testing interruptions in
2013. According to Barresi, the
state is exploring options for the
remainder of the testing window,
including pencil and paper as-
sessments.
Students, educators and
families have been preparing for
these mandatorv assessments for
the maforitv of the school vear,
including the "stress test" of
equipment ordered bv Supt. Bar-
resi in Januarv which halted
instruction for all schools in
order to later prevent testing
interruptions. In addition, the
high-stakes tests interrupted
todav mav be used to determine
whether students receive a
drivers license or graduate high
