Literally no one says test scores should be the sole measurement. There are a variety of factors schools track. The idea of a test obsession is gaslighting meant to take an important measure off the table so the education establishment can ignore the outcomes of *some* students.

The great Thomas Sowell speaks -- and he's not wrong!
Any politician, of any race or party, who fights against charter schools that give many black youngsters their one shot at a decent life does not deserve the vote of anybody who really believes that black lives matter.

Congratulations @DemocracyPrep @SethAndrew ... the power of civics education! xitter.cf/aeieducation/status/98…
This month, lackluster reading and math scores from the 2017 NAEP were released. But a new report shows some progress in civics education worthy of celebration. @DemocracyPrep @natmalkus @BrendanMBell11 ow.ly/yDAw30jEELd

"I see one-third of a nation ill-housed, ill-clad, ill-nourished. ... The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little." FDR Inauguration January 20, 1937

Today, a jury did the right thing. But true justice requires much more. Michelle and I send our prayers to the Floyd family, and we stand with all those who are committed to guaranteeing every American the full measure of justice that George and so many others have been denied.
