Snapshots Of Lunacy
The other night on television, I watched NYS Board of Regents Chancellor Merryl Tish stating that New York parents deserve “…a snapshot, that’s all the tests are, of their child’s development…” As a parent and an educator, I could not agree more, parents certainly should have snapshot of their child’s development. Unfortunately, what students in NY have been enduring for the last thirteen years is a snapshot of a tragedy.
