As a teacher in Texas, I think I've been pretending all of this doesn't happen, and especially in the town in which I reside. I'm so glad that this was aired, and hope that enough Texans will see this to start realizing how absolutely ridiculous, bizarre, and wasteful our SBOE really is... For now, I'll just keep on keepin' on and teaching kids what they really need to know. Screw em!

I'm a dummy and refuse to Google this. Can we still stream the show some how? Or are we shit out of luck if we live in Texas, as we are with most things?

Proud to have tasted parts of your blisters via that sundae

As a teacher, I feel ya. We hate testing you guys probably MORE than you hate taking the test. We all know that we need an alternative, yet no one has been able to come up with something that can adequately keep tabs on our extra-large state... :/

I am very lucky to teach in a charter setting where we are not monitored as closely. Most teachers share the same mindsets and feelings about state standards. Our problems completely come from parents who are continually supporting this...craziness, by voting over and over again for the same group of people.
