Teaching to the Test Harms Students

And we don’t want a society with standardized minds — Standardized tests are only useful for measuring standardized minds. However, humans are not standardized, nor do we want them to be. If you think about it, pressuring students to do well on standardized tests is a strange way to measure success. Why would we want everyone to learn the same…

Our Last Mourning

Poetry Sunday — The last morning I saw you, I found the strength to set a firm boundary. I knew the time had come for me to stop accepting your lies and lack of accountability. Remember your post that day? You said we were both broken, and that I didn’t know I was…
