[quote=Anonymous]From the petition's page: "If it passes, the PCSB's new accountability framework for all charter schools with Preschool and Lower Elementary programs would assign between 60-80% of a school's overall rating to the test scores of its 3, 4, and 5-year-olds. That sort of emphasis doesn't reflect what parents want for their children -- and it doesn't reflect what the research tells us about how children learn."
