[quote=Anonymous][quote]And I just want to reiterate that you are lucky to have your child in a charter school where the teachers are given a lot of control and where there is no "teach to the test" because all of the students are "above average". Your kid is lucky. Would you want your child in a non charter? Why did you put him there? You know the answer. You have no business telling other people what to believe based on YOUR data and analysis that was generated based on YOUR hand picked committee to create YOUR tests.

NO. Your complaint about charters is IRRELEVANT and a total NON-SEQUITUR and here's why:

At the end of the day the teachers at the charter school STILL HAVE THE SAME COMMON CORE STANDARDS TO MEET and STILL HAVE THE SAME PARCC TEST to be held accountable to.

If you as a public school teacher don't think you have as much flexibility or control then that is a problem WITH YOUR LEA AND YOUR SCHOOL ADMINISTRATION, as opposed to being a problem with the standards or the test.

Sorry, but NO.[/quote]

Maybe the problem is that the kids in your charter are not the same as the kids in the other schools?  Maybe the kids are not apples?[/quote]
