[quote=Anonymous]1) the article gives me hope regarding Core Curriculum 2) the article makes me think standardized testing should not happen after 5th grade. 3) if a child doesn't pass standardized tests, DCPS needs to focus like crazy to get those kids up to speed. Put them in different schools that provide an alternative. Allows teachers of those that do pass tests to go deeper without having the struggling students slow down the classroom. 4) heartening to hear that even those that received lack luster educations in DCPS and initially struggle in college, are able to right themselves, given the right support and enough effort by the student. A bad education can be overcome. (But wouldn't it be great if it didn't have to be?)[/quote]
