[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not that many parents fall for it. It's that many parents have no choice. What is the alternative? Private school? I agree the problem is with the curriculum. Who is writing it and why are they trying to reinvent the wheel when there are good curricula out there? This is a mess and our kids are paying the price. I met with a teacher to look at one of the tests they "can't" send home. I wanted to note some area where my child missed questions and was told, "I have to ask you not to take notes on the test." [/quote] THAT is the main reason why we left for private for our eldest. This county is ridiculous on their top secret tests. Take it, fail it, move it. No looking, no relearning, no fixing the wrong answers. NO ONE is learning or digesting it. It is memorized until the test and then onto the next round of memorization. Parents have to push to be involved and teachers dig their heels. Horrible process[/quote]
