Why I Oppose Government Testing of Students

Because the constant focus on tests cripples education. Teachers teach to the test, not to the students, the material, or the community, and useless pursuits like art and music get cut from the curriculum in the scramble to raise test scores and win funding.

The No Child Left Behind Act was a mistake. The public education system is broken, and it is only making matters worse.
