From a Seasoned Professional Educator with 26 years of experience:
It won't hurt your kid to take the test!
They can say what they want to, but the Star test and any other standardizes test is nothing but a money generator and has nothing to do with how well the kids are being taught.
I taught school for 26 years and todays test, just like always is geared to do nothing more than to make money for the people that developed it !
If the kids do really well on any of the questions one year, they will change the way the question is asked the next year just to trip the kid up!
Just my $.02
