The only people failing in this case are the parents. Parents, did you not know that your child was doing bad in math? How? Or am I supposed to believe that teachers are just handing out grades? Wrong-o. Lets get this straight...I know a child who goes to rachel freeman and this child is very bright. However, realize that her parents are also very involved in her education. These parents say they were shocked when they heard the news. How many of them took time to talk with their child's teachers? And don't tell me children who do well often fail their EOG. There are some children who do, but the majority of children who are made to study and do their work pass EOGs. Having said that, I've always though no child left behind was stupid and did nothing but put a band-aid on a cut.We never had it when I went to school and I have a fine education.
