I'm not proud. Our charter school gives bonuses based on test scores...
so when I'm reading the questions to the kids... I definitely hint at the
answers. I haven't had a raise in three years and my husband is laid
off... I'm so sad I've let it come to this. I figure, it doesn't hurt the
kid any... these results are usually lost in a drawer somewhere... but it
made me about $500 extra last year. (like I said, I'm disgusted with my
behavior)
