As mentioned in Chapter 3 of the text the AYP, also known as the Adequate Yearly Progress is of great concern in the education system today.This measurement is determined through the academic success or failure by these schools, through standardized testing.Throughout the semester we have discussed different factors which may lead to a student not performing to his/her best ability.What the government needs to do, is first fix the problem,and then determine the next step to take in fixing the school status.As we all know patience is virtue.yes, these schools need more assistance, in order for betterment.However, such powerful acts need to be lessen so students have time to develop.Should schools implement at home programs, for students to work with their(additional homework)parents to excel in the classroom setting?Could this be the resolution to the problem, at hand?
With the idea of standardized testing the decision maker in most American classrooms, should teachers actually “teach for the test?”
