Diane Ravitch Accurately Eviscerated Test-Based “Reformers”

Nearly 20 years after NCLB, RTT, and now Betsy DeVos there’s been no progress made in the improvement of public schools as measured by test results… and this is the case even though the schools directed all their time and energy and instruction toward the tests! This comes as no surprise since the correlation between poverty and test scores has been well established for over 50 years and the low spending on those schools has persisted.
Will anything change in the future? Doubtful given our obsession with spreadsheets and low taxes.
