SBA's

Oh, the horror the horror.
The SBA horror.
As hundreds of us are aware, the SBA's, or Standard Based Assessments have come.
Actually, to be more precise, the bout of horror came yesterday.
The actual tests, though pointless and irritating to complete, are not as bad as what the SBA's will do in the long term.
The privatizing of public schools is, to use this word one more time, is horrible.
By 2013, the bare minimum for every student to achieve on the SBA's for each student is 100%.
I could write about this very topic for hours, based on how much it irritates me. But, for the present, I will be content with this unreasonably short rant.
