Yeah, because those private companies really understand what goes on in the classroom and are beyond being corrupted.
Ahhh I see we have a status quo guy....please continue on.
I'll send my kid to a private school and she won't have to worry about this crap anyway.....and will be very well prepared for college and life in the real world.
I'm just trying to help you guys out.

Private schools certainly have their advantages, but even they are now adopting testing procedures. Most are going through ACT. It mirrors the common core tests. Also, many private schools use the old school method of teaching. Kids sit, listen, then regurgitate. Memorization of facts and no understanding of concepts. It makes for great students, if that is the goal.

Not status quo, just telling you what won't work. I've been in the public school classroom for 20 years, and I can tell you that I see very little chance of the problem being solved in our current political climate.
