Madison Superintendent provides Parents with the truth about the Common Core SBAC Test





As George Orwell wrote in his initially classified book of fiction,
In a time of universal deceit – telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
To which it is well to remember the words of Winston Churchill who observed,
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is.
If you had a child in the Madison, Connecticut public schools you’d have a superintendent, school administrators and Board of Education that was committed to telling the truth about the Common Core Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium (SBAC) Testing System and dedicated to putting children, parents, teachers and their public schools above the Corporate Education Reform Industry’s ongoing attempt to undermine public education in the United States.
If you had a children in the Madison, Connecticut public schools you would have received the following a letter from Superintendent Thomas Scarice and Assistant Superintendent Gail Dahling-Hench, a letter that honestly and truthfully explains why the Common Core SBAC test is not an appropriate tool or mechanism to judge our children, their teachers or our public schools.
The letter to Madison Parents states;
Individual Student Reports for the 2015 Smart Balanced Assessment Consortium (SBAC) standardized test were mailed this week. This specific report format is provided to the district by the Connecticut State Department
