Say No to School Testing Madness Article


Dear friends, this is a great article about testing in our public schools that calls on parents, teachers and administrators to stop the testing madness. The Standardized Testing Industry is a Multi-Billion Dollar business that has not lost one cent during this recession, while we watch teachers lose their jobs, class sizes increase and supply budgets shrink. Please read the article, and if you are angry over the cuts to our schools, ask your superintendent, your school board and your school principal what they are doing about it? Then take a stand, and tell them that you will not support testing until you see that learning in the classroom is supported. Exercise your right as a parent and OPT OUT OF THE STATE TESTS!http://www.ajc.com/opinion/say-no-to-school-1017302.html

The Multi-Billion Dollar Testing Industry has done it again. The industry continues to usurp precious resources out of local schools when districts are forced to lay off teachers, discontinue programs for children and eliminate field trips.
