D.C. Dumping Test Scores From Its Teacher Evaluations

Standardized testing is a flawed approach to anything you apply it to. It has been proven scientifically to be worthless. There is no such thing as a standard. Common Core is a way to stiff arm any and all other creative approaches to teaching and punish those who step out of line. More and more it will be up to the parents to teach their kids critical thinking, compassion, well rounded skills and the application of these skills. I personally recommend foreign language, music, visual arts and physical learning. Community is our only hope. You may not like my approach, but what are you doing about it? School me, please.
