[quote=Anonymous]Test scores give you an indication of how students are performing at a particular school. But they don’t tell you the whole story. They don’t tell you about individual student progress, they don’t tell you about the richness of the curriculum – whether there is art or music, or opportunities for individual or group exploration into a particular subject. And surveys of teachers in national research studies have shown that test preparation has contributed to the narrowing of school curricula. Yeah your kid can pass a test - but that doesn't mean they're learning anything substantive beyond what's on those tests, which are often broken down to the bare minimum requirements so teachers and administrators can keep their jobs.[/quote]
