[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I seriously wish this country had never started this test score obsession, back with No Child Left Behind. It is morally appalling that people are making or losing money based on the test scores of the kids in the local school. “Have a good day today, honey, and try hard on that test because I stand to earn a 10% increase in my property values if you do.” Or, even more appallingly, “Oh no, some Hispanic neighbors moved in. Their kids won’t score high enough on the tests and I’m going to lose 10% of my property values. Time to move out.”[/quote] Dh and I kind of joke that the best thing we could do for property values would be to hold signs and pass out breakfast before exam day at our elementary school. We joke that the signs would say "You got this! My house value is counting on you!"[/quote]
