The Sacramento Kings Are Disillusioned Too

Seth Sandronsky, an editor with Because People Matter, writes: "Consider the official hype around standardized testing. Proponents claim that it is a valid measurement of student learning.

"Many parents, students and teachers think otherwise. Yet their voices are rarely heard versus those who officially support standardized testing. Moreover, imagine the disillusionment among students who score poorly on the tests."

Keeping score means there will be winners and losers -- just ask the Sacramento Kings.
