Math and Science WASL (just say No?)

Here is an interesting piece...

What are your thoughts?

WOW!!! Just say NO
That sure would give the SPS something to think about as they are not altering k-8 math in anyway for 2008-2009 school year. The NMAP and New State Math k-8 standards came out last Spring.... The SPS did not even notice ...supposedly because of no change in the 2009 Math WASL.

    There is a recent article you should read over the testing contracts that Bergeson awarded to ETS and ESD 113 - the WASL will be around at least to 2011. Total bill for Washington residents is only around $165 million.

    Government-inspired math reformers are high-paid shills. If Prejudice were their child, it would be the town pariah and an ignorant fool, so schooled she could name a horse in nine languages, yet thought a cow was something you rode on.
