13,000 Florida High School Seniors Fail Test

[mburbank]

I'm not against standards.

I can't speak to the Florida test, but in Massachusetts I'm highly opposed to the way those standards are measured, and I'm very opposed to how the tests have come to dominate education.

I also very opposed to the lack of thought that's gone into what happens to students who fail the test.

I would also like to see these tests given to a cross spectrum of working adults and see how we faired. In particular, I woud like to take the test and I would like to see the President of the United states take the test.
