He was for testing before he was against it...
Am I the only one confused by the news that Gilford is implementing a series of tests within the curriculum? As the Citizen reported on that testing earlier this week, the $uperintendent said,
“It really gives us a road map of the child's academic standing. Therefore the teacher is able to plan the instruction for the student.”
Shazaam! Gilford’s highest paid employee must have had some sort of epiphany because it was only back in September that he wrote his last lengthy tome about how awful it is to test students. You remember- he told everybody that “high stakes testing” jeopardizes learning. This guy never fails to crack me up! Unfortunately, every chuckle costs me another chunk of my paycheck while he laughs all the way to the bank.
