Note from teacher about STAAR test

[super_dave]

Both my kids are A honor roll. They have no issues with this test other than the emphasis that the schools put on it and the stop down of test taking.



My 3rd grader's biggest concern about STAAR tests is that they don't get outside recess when the 4-5th graders are testing so the noise doesn't disturb them.

My 2nd grader had back to back field trips yesterday an Tuesday because of the 3rd grade taking this test.

Fyi. He does not have to and will not take this test next year.

That is a nice note. Bulk or not.

Very nice note. Kid still needs to pass the test.

No he/she doesn't

That's greatness!



Pay based on test performance would greatly put the teachers with a large percentage of AP students at an advantage.

Not trying to take anything away from it because it is an awesome gesture by what is probably an awesome teacher who I am sure believes in every word of that letter and every kid she teaches but I did see the same letter on FB signed Ms Brown.

Atta boy. STAAR test is a joke for any kid of average intelligence at an average school with parents who put in the effort at home.

Awesome!
But don't post this on FB, she'll probably get fired...

I really wish teachers would stop using comic sans script though. It drives me nuts lol.

You must have a lot of issues if that drives you nuts
