We went to a debate last night for those running for state school superintentent. GA kids are subject to 48 testing days in a year. We had our minds changed by one Dr Mary Kay Bacallao whose credentials are unimpeachable. She also teaches a class on how to teach at Mercer. She became involved because her child was not allowed to opt out of the ridiculous tests. She’s done a ton of research on the money and time being wasted and it’s available on her website. She’s not as smooth a talker as some of the others, but I hope she gets enough exposure to change a lot of other peoples minds along with ours.
What did you think of Jester? I saw the candidates a couple month ago at a GOP breakfast event and she seemed the only one addressing fiscal issues.
