Not sure. They would have to be rewritten every year - and it was a grueling process.
Also, they would not be able to be released until each school in the district had administered the test to all students - which could be weeks after some had taken the test.

Lol. I love you defending this. You’re not interested in helping educate children. Just want that paycheck for 7 months of work.

It is a sign they really do not think for themselves.

There is a funny video of Campus Reform going around Florida's campus on a game day and asking various groups of students if they support racial quotas in order to achieve "equity." Probably a half-dozen or so. All were adamantly in favor of quotas for admissions to achieve equity, no big surprise.

Then they were asked if they then support racial quotas for the football team. LOL! The pivot of every single one to being in favor of competency hierarchies almost made one's head spin! They even said they need to rethink their stance on admissions quotas, because, as one put it, "I really hadn't thought it through."

At least some had the ballsacks to rethink it. Most leftists just scream and shut down.

No. I'm accusing kids of photographing the test and sending it to friends or posting on line. It's done all of the time.

It's even done during tests. if the students are not being carefully monitored.

It's the whole "it ain't cheating if you can don't get caught" concept that has permeated our society.

Then make 4 years worth of tests to rotate. Then it doesn't matter.

I’m calling bs on this as I don’t believe even 1% of hs and under students know how the funding works for their school system. I also don’t think the sit around lamenting inequitable property tax application is behind forced relocation of minorities, especially since I don’t believe that either. Property tax valuations are based on comps in the area. Whenever new development moves into an area the surrounding properties will appreciate in value. Rising tide lifts all boats

Not using adult language, no.

My kids elementary and upper elementary schools in Petal, MS had Vex robotics teams down to 2nd grade. A rich arts rotation, a PAC at the high school they would perform at. Multiple accelerated classes and full time gifted track. Well managed and cared for facilities.

Drive ten or so miles down the road to the next school system (Richmond, if I remember) and it's suck city. One gifted teacher for the district. No robotics before 9th grade. Quarterly arts. Performances in the gym. Run down facilities.

Kids know. They know when their community is shortchanging them compared to the next one down the road. All it takes is a field trip or a football game or wrestling match to see the inequity from one system to another.

And when I get those kids in my classes, I can tell too.

The only people that scared and made angry were liberals who did not have deal with the ramifications of unbridled immigration. For the conservatives and the Democratic voters who have to compete with those were pretty much happy someone was attempting to take charge of the border.

The point I was trying to make was politicians say/do lots of things and never had the intention of following through with it or flat out lie doing the opposite.

If it is already being done, then what is the argument to not send home?

Additionally, this is so lazy. I could literally rewrite any of these unit tests in under an hour. That is 8-10 hours to rewrite an entire year’s worth of tests. Oof, so effing lazy.

That's not what McDad is requesting. His kids' school is telling him that he can't receive originals or copies of everyday course work and class tests his kids have taken. He wants to review the materials with his kids to help them learn from their mistakes. This is a truly radical concept of being a great father. The teachers and the school administrators are refusing because if the materials leave the classroom the teacher would have to actually change the tests (perform work) rather than simply give the exact same tests every year.

If true, then that's totally wrong.
That would never fly in my district, any district that I have ever work in, or any district that I know of.

I literally studied tests built exactly on copies of the SAT, ACT, and AP tests. For AP especially we took past tests and DBQs in class to prep.

There are review materials available that mirror the tests. The release of old versions of the tests is allowed.

Oh, there is much truth to this. However, Trump had every intention of building the wall and was striving for it. Unfortunately, Congress stayed in the way.

It’s because the looney left cherry picks where to start and stop their stupid talking points. Was slavery/racism bad from 1776 forward or centuries before that when people were selling and enslaving their own people? As bad as whitey is we they seemed to make greater advancements than any other culture.

Slavery became increasingly bad as society progressed.

Carville is a pragmatist. He understands that you don't alienate the middle portion of this country, who really just want to go to work, feed their families, and make their lives better, and expect those people to vote for you. The leadership of the Democratic party has left the middle class in their push further left. He's the one that said "It's about the economy, stupid" and he was absolutely correct then, and the phrase would be absolutely correct today.

Unfortunately for the Dems they no longer listen to Carville.

The minions in this case would be the ones mindlessly lead by right wing media.
The "why" is to sow racial discourse.
It's the same as with the whole portrayal of BLM protestors as riotous thugs. There are still nuts in the PF who believe this.

Not usually into policing others’ grammatical miscues on here but now I have to point out, you being a teacher and all, and have done it in two posts now in this thread, it is “led” not “lead”…
