[quote=Anonymous]It seems like a pretty dumb excuse for lower test scores. MD officials are admitting that they rushed into a curriculum so fast that they did not have a chance to modify the tests to gauge if the children were successful in learning what they were taught. The new curriculum is unproven, and now MD educators don't think their own tests are valid points of measurements to gauge if the curriculum is successful. Seems like both Starr and the MD Superintendent are incompetent. That's a whole lot of money wasted on testing if you buy their excuses. As a parent, its even more worrisome that the testing might be showing what we see at home, the lowering of state standards and the dumbing down of the curriculum.[/quote]
