[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You must realize NCLB tells you nothing about a school except how many kids attending have risk factors: second language, poverty, special ed,etc.it tells us nothing about the curriculum, the teaching, etc. It is a real estate tool- nothing more.NCLB was designed to,yes, "leave children behind." The kids come in with these risk factor and of course they are below level and yet their grade level curriculum stays the same no matter what- whether they can speak English, whether or not they have learning issues, whether or not they live in crack dens, and they are tested on that grade level with a grade level state test. Of course they do not pass it. The PARCC test will do the same! Welcome to the sham of education reform.[/quote] The results belie this type of simple determinism, even if they raise other issues about "teaching to the test."[/quote]
