| Subject: Whatever the statists touch, turns to shit: American schools too focused on standardized testing, study finds Sun Oct 25, 2015 12:32 am | |
| The number of standardized tests public school students take has exploded in the past decade, with most schools requiring too many tests of dubious value, according to the first comprehensive survey of the nation's largest school districts.
