Not surprisingly.....

On 4/4/06, CBS News reported that “in Philadelphia, nearly half of every school day now is spent on lessons focused on passing the [PSSA] tests.”

I know it is very sad. Because President Bush passed that NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND ACT, during his first term in office. Now, not just the kids are losing out, but also the teachers in their teachings. They really didn't see how this ACT was going to effect of kids before they passed it.

School will never be the same anymore as we knew it.
