$60 mil for 2 yrs for a new test? DOE says this test “produces better data for teachers when addressing the specific needs of specific students.” We were fed the same BS about the PARCC test. As a teacher, never was I ever provided ANY specific PARCC data about a specific student. The next year’s opening day we’d get a presentation as to how our population did vs the state avg. A teacher knows if and where a specific student needs help w/o the standardized test. They do help compare schools & fight graduation fraud but we won't get what we're promised, so this is too much $
