TEA pulls back the curtain on standardized testing next week
Then School districts will send student report cards out to individual families next week, outlining what questions each student missed, and why, as well as correct answers and tested standards
New
student report cards will go out next week that Commissioner Mike Morath promises will go a long way toward demystifying
content on the state’s standardized tests.
Groups
such as Texans Advocating for Meaningful Student Assessment, or
TAMSA, have long advocated for minimizing, or even eliminating, state
standardized tests. The agency and lawmakers have offered feeble justification
for the tests in the face of rising opposition.
