[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Then you have bad teachers[/quote] If your job depends on achieving one goal over all the others--on which goal are you going to spend most of your time?[/quote] Does it really though? If you have students who are failing school, yes I can see where this is the case. They need to have some minimal competency. However, if the majority of your class would pass the SOL whether you helped them memorize or not, why would you spend so much time teaching to this test? How is your job affected by the scores of kids who you know will pass? Do the majority of kids headed to Mclean, Langley, Oakton, Lake Braddock, Robinson, Woodson, Chantilly, Madison, and Marshall really need that much review time? Couldn't the few children who need the extra review get it as part of a pull out session?[/quote]
