Good news ?...Not really .......Standardized test schools in NYS schools are getting worse....In Rochester only one in four are proficient in reading. No wonder Mayor Duffy wants permission for City Hall to take over the school system.
Take a look at the sign I saw today....That says it all.

The fault rests with the racist nature of the tests. That, coupled with the fact that we have failed to invest our money in our teacher's, who stand at the front line against dumbness. The people of New York should take this news seriously, and respond with a commitment to spend more money on our teacher union and, I mean education and books and stuff like that. Do you people realize the cost of travel to the Bahamas these days? Each educator must face this challenge alone. You taxpaying idiots, er citizens should give, er pay us more money and we will dumb down, er modify these tests so the numbers will go up and all will be happie. We will shortly be releasing news stories to TV7 that will repeatedly tell our side of the story. Watch for them. Nightly.
