Subject: Share your stories/opinions with the Education Task Force!
This is a most opportune time to write to U.S. Senators Alexander and Bennett whose task force will "examine regulations and testing governing public schools".

Please read: http://www.facebook.com/l/3e366n--Kw1s749iOLFQMO2KTOA/t.co/qTnmBQA

Send them your stories of the detrimental effects testing has caused to your children, your students, or yourselves if you are a teacher.

Parents, share stories of bullying by school administartors you may have encountered opting your children out of testing!

Here you can contact Bennett: http://www.facebook.com/l/3e366HBlF6k7JbLgj0vQCDKsVuQ/bennet.senate.gov/contact/
Here Alexander: http://www.facebook.com/l/3e366Yk-JovFTxDxikPt0X3V-MQ/alexander.senate.gov/public/index.cfm?p=Email
