The latest stupity that is coming down the pike in Missouri

16. So are they going to adjust all those standardized tests to accommodate this?

Should be interesting to see how tests that so many RW corporations are making bank off of might be affected. Does MO have any state-wide standards students are supposed to achieve before they can graduate? The RW corporations pushed all that testing and the standards so they could make millions and millions off the testing and scoring.

Will students actually be able to opt out of enough of the curriculum to impact the profits of the testing companies? School districts won't want to keep using all those tests if the tests start to show they're cranking out ignorant graduates. So then there will be requests for waivers to stop the testing I'd think.

Seems like a lose-lose. Students lose because they graduate ignorant of important lessons and the for-profit "education" corporations lose revenue.
