In my opinion, this is a PERFECT example of what's wrong with some current educational movements, especially the extreme standards, objectives, and RTI movements right now.
As my assistant superintendent put it at a meeting when I was venting on the unfairness of our state testing: tell it to the federal government and she is so right. There are so many educators. Why don't we take a stand? Even a non-educator can understand the absurdity of holding all children up to the same standardized assessment at the end of the year regardless of his/her disability, age, etc. Seems to me there is a lot wrong with education right now. None of it matches up to the books I read for my personal academic growth. Leslie R.
