Although the rationale
of subjecting preschool age children to standardized testing is worthy of debate, we will
pass for now. The simple fact is many private kindergartens require its applicants to
complete the Educational Records
Bureau admissions testing (ERB's). If your children attend a participating
preschool, they can take the ERB's at their preschool. Many parents believe that
administering the ERB through the familiar environment of a child's preschool offers
advantages. According to the ERB website, the ERB examiner assigned to a school is a
familiar figure to the students.
