High Stakes Test

SUNDAY, MAY 1, 2011

A dear friend and current school administrator in Texas sent me this video and I have posted it, with his permission, on YouTube. It's a very personal story of one kid's experience with Texas High Stakes tests. Might want to check it out:

How touching! Angela has more perseverance than most adults, defintely more than the politicians that have determined the importance of a test!

Thanks, Eileen, for posting this, though by reading the comments on YouTube it is clear to me that many think how a student scores on a standardized test is a meaningful indicator of what the kid knows, what he/she has learned, etc. We still have work to do. And, I clearly need to work on my video production quality!
