They do that already. They are called year at a glance and pacing guides. How do you find out if the teacher has taught them and if the students understand them? Our principal lets her teachers do what they want for the most part and she doesn't review the student's work. [/quote]

Not the same thing.  The tests are more important.  You really don't get that, do you?  The teachers and school are being judged on what the test scores are.

I agree the students (and parents) should be judged as much or more than the teachers and school, but I don't understand what you think I'm not getting. I still think we should have end of year tests for subjects and that those grades should be made public so that people can see how a school is doing. It's the state's decision what to do with those scores related to teachers and schools. I don't want the teacher to be able to teach whatever they want to or not want to. I want my child to demonstrate some minimal competency at the end of the year as measured in a test.[/quote]
