[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who cares? It is just a test. [/quote] I care because I'm a parent and a tax payer. I don't personally care about test scores, per se, but the District government roped our families and our children into this test, which many declare as worthless. This test required tons of instruction time to prep for. This test cost our city coffers millions....millions that could be spent on other education-related expenses. [/quote] [b]If your child did well, why do you care about the overall? [/b]I am not a fan of standardized tests. It is a very small piece of a overall picture. I heard about the mega class last year at Janney from friends, who dismissed the year as a waste and a loss. [/quote] So you prescribe to the "I gots mine!" philosophy. Cool. [/quote]
