Kris, I wasn't aware it would be a big deal either. Although this is only second year on 148, the teacher that used to run the team still works at the school. She said this happened every year the Championship was in Disney and a couple years in Atlanta. Each time they were able to test the kids at the competition. When I talked to the person at TEA, she said they did used to let this happen but they are no longer granting this exception. She didn't give me any more of a reason then that.
