What if the parents cannot afford the $60 to testing?


St. Pat's is a private school run by the Catholic archdiocese of Chicago; I'm guessing tuition, books, uniforms, etc. run about $2000 annually per student. Parents send their kids here BY CHOICE. If, after all of the fees, they can't afford the extra $60, then they're stretching their finances way too thin in the first place. I'm sure the school will let the parents make payments for their child's test. Besides, the school is announcing this 9 months in advance to give next year's students and parents fair warning.
