1. This one's bookmarked.

:rofl:

From one teacher to another, I don't need to tell you how seductive the "rigor trigger" is (metaphorically speaking, of course). ;)

We'll have to be careful not to get too trigger happy once this plan is implemented!

BTW, are you from Jeb Bush country? If so, my sympathies, really.

3. No, thankfully.

I taught for most of my career in CA, and learned about high-stakes testing under Pete Wilson.

I'm currently in Oregon, which has been way behind the testing curve, and is now under the NCLB gun and rapidly making many changes I've already experienced in CA.
