FCAT StressesBy Donna Clinger My daughter is in 3rd grade this year. Up until this year she was a straight
A student. Her grades have slightly declined this year partly because of the
stress that is placed on her for FCAT. "no child left behind" is not a true
statement because if the child fails they get left behind to face another year
of FCAT. The money being spent on FCAT can be used for more 1 on 1 tutoring or
small group tutoring, for those who are having difficulties. We should trust our
teachers to teach our children less stressfully and give them the tools to help
them, rather than forcing them to cram hours of preparing for FCAT down their
throats. Then to top it off the tests are graded by people with little training
and no background experience in education. |
