No Child Left Behind has been revisited, and it doesn't seem like anyone's happy. How can anyone expect to close the achievement gap without investing heavily into the wellbeing of lower-performing students? What is the good of making tests the most important part of the school year? When tests are so important, why would schools even bother with materials not on the tests? I really wish we would stop this testing nonsense and focus on what is better for the students and their futures.
