When you have to teach to the test it leaves the kids who need more time and more explanation left behind in the push to get a majority of proficient scores!

It's just further proof that you can only expect sensationalistic news reporting from FAUX NEWS. Rather than being true patriots and standing together to build our country, media fools like FAUX NEWS [and others who do not give the education issue time] are TRAITORS to the ideals of the Bill of Rights. We know for a fact that education is the #1 institution that can transform a nation for better or worse. I am embarrassed at what the Republican Party has become. Moreover, I am embarrassed for the Democrats who haven't stood up to the insanity. Perhaps, the two party system is really an illusion.

That group has been recruiting, financing and bribing politicians, mayors, governors secretary of education and president. They have been working for several years and what we are experiencing today is just a nation wide effect of their work. We should not vote for any of the politicians who have received funds or openly endorse this organization. It is hard to believe that people who were educated mostly in public schools can sell themselves to the power of companies, hedge funds, who want to profit from public funds. The creation of charter schools is nothing else that becoming the middle man to pay teachers and be able to receive loans and funding from private organizations who will make money out of tax breaks of up to 35% designed for this purpose. http://www.dfer.org/ http://www.actblue.com/partner/dfer http://www.opensecrets.org/pacs/lookup2.php?strID=C00417733 http://www.campaignmoney.com/political/committees/democrats-for-education-reform.asp?cycle=10 State employees across the nation need to get together. Not only teachers. Same day, Nationwide actions are the only way to stop all this nonsense going on against state employees. No Child Left behind helped companies to make money for 8 years but they never attempted to leave teachers without jobs nor benefits. Today is different, most of the teachers are accomplices because they are not involved, many states have more than 100,000 full time teachers that do not get together because they are separated by school districts, what a mistake; get united and march together, only way to bring back sanity to education. Lets elect teachers to the senate and governors. Everybody should read about DEMOCRATS FOR EDUCATION REFORM.
