Haley Casten was a rising senior at Castle View High School in Castle Rock, Colorado, when Casten appeared on Future of School's One Big Idea podcast in July 2021. Casten proposed eliminating the SAT and other high-stakes college admissions exams, or reducing their importance, in favor of a holistic view of a student's grades, character and activities, and argued that test anxiety can keep an SAT score from showing a good student's ability.
