It has gutted the love of learning, created a sterile, test-driven culture in schools, and destroyed creativity and higher level thinking.
The underlying premise of the law is noble and with it I agree. But this emphasis on testing with no consideration for the realities of society which impact it are ridiculous.
It makes me glad I'm on "this end" of my career. I love the kids and I enjoy my job, but this high-stakes testing that is manipulated into nothing more than a PR effort is a waste of tax payer funds. It's a sham.
