    Dennis, the state decides the testing system and the district has nothing to do with it. Teachers have little input as to what is tested. I don’t know how teachers can work any harder than the ones that work with me do.

    Dennis – You mean you want the school district to figure out the problem ?? That is not going to happen as long as Malcolm is too worried about getting his campaign website ready, while keeping his thumb on the daily happening’s at Tate. And Bill Slayton, ha I’m wondering why he even shows up to the school board meeting’s, he could just text in his votes with as much as he does on the board. The issue, in my humble opinion, is this…too many people downtown do not care about the kids. They are career progressors who only care about taking the next step on the career ladder. Also the county does not stick with any plans. They will introduces new plans every two years and scrap them because they didnt see results. Well you are taking a 5-7 year plan and trying to force it into a 2 year window.

    It seems to me that our entire education system has always been built on tests. I had to pass tests in all levels of education. The only twist is that we are now grading our educational system. I applaud that. I’m not sure why you would not want to do that; how else will you drive improvements without feedback? I’m not knowledgeable enough to evaluate this particular test, but if it is flawed, correct the test. Don’t destroy the feedback loop. It’s the best one we have until we invent a better one.

    As a student who is required to take these exams. I am disgusted. I am being taught to take a test. Teachers get on your case about it. I am constantly reminded by teachers with phrases such as “When the EOC comes”, “This is going to be on the EOC”, “The EOC is 30% of your grade in this class.” It’s not even about learning anymore, I am just learning how to pass a test. I have had nervous breakdowns the day before the EOCs. I would like to see every single teacher that has taught me to take the EOC, FCAT, and etc. Let’s see if they can pass with a 3 or above. Let’s see if the people who make the tests can pass these tests. I know that I am worth more than a score on a test. I know that my intelligence is being insulted when I am given a standardized test.

    Teaching for tests is obviously not the answer. Why not go back to the way things were? You can’t cram information into kids and hope they remember it months later when they test. It’s too much. The new math is psychotic.

    Hmmm. In my humble opinion, when less than 70% of the students are scoring at “a proficient level three or above,” there MUST be a problem somewhere. Is it the Curriculum? Is it the school? Is it the teacher(s)? Is it the tests? There is an answer somewhere, and I think our School Board members ought to earn their paycheck and find it. Then FIX IT.
