The district never meant to use it for this, but is sticking to that "messaging" so as not to alarm teachers. They need to quit playing games!

If we spent nearly as much time and money on students as we did on the cost, personnel, and waste of learning time just to prep for these waste of time tests, our students would reap many learning benefits in my opinion.

Yay teachers, and kudos for standing up for your students, and education as a whole. Down with the excessive testing train (wreck)! Good for these teachers. !
