President Obama said Saturday he's asked the Department of Education to try to reduce the number of standardized tests administered in public schools. "Tests shouldn't occupy too much classroom time, or crowd out teaching and learning," Obama said in a video on the White House Facebook page.

Yeah. Wouldn't want to "make it official"... how stupidly dumbed-down students have become thanks to Leftist agenda and doctrine.
(That is, if you don't measure/test, you don't know... so you can blindly conclude/assume anything you want which promotes the agenda.)
very interesting point... I do not ever recall reading that somewhere else. nice work.
its seems to me they already concerned common core is going to cause scores to go down. If you had kids in American schools you can already see they are going to weaken the math abilities of the top track. Even, if you are trying to be open minded about it like the teachers are told to be... its just a big experiment. Why screw with the kids who are already succeeding. Why not try common core on the bottom half of the glass until we get results.
Who is "they"? The establishment Leftists WANT scores to go down... so those poor souls (1) are never able to get a well-paying job, (2) give up on any sense of accomplishment and "the American dream"... settling for "life lived in a trailer park on an EBT card" so long as they vote for DemoCraps.
How sad is that?

Lol, clearly your score IS down.
The left is pissed off because it is really easy to look at a schools and determine if the kids in the school get shitty test scores. They have passed laws where it is illegal for a real estate agent to tell if the school is bad or not. As a result, people look on the internet for test scores and it is really easy to tell if the school is worth a damn or if the school is filled with losers. Obama wants to do away with that. Its that simple.
