[quote=Anonymous]Sadly, the driver behind the 3 year moratorium is to give the administration the chance to integrate prep for the new tests. There is a good deal of concern at the local principals level and above that they will not be prepared for the new test. MCPS regardless of whatever curriculum does teach to the test and makes sure that the students everyday education is structured against being able to answer questions in the way they are presented on the MSA. Starr knows that there will be a drop in test scores until he can reshape what is actually taught to match the new tests. I would be behind a permanent ban but a 3 year ban does nothing but serve the interests of bureaucrats who shouldn't even be in education. [/quote]
