      <![CDATA[Wow, good for them. I just can't fathom why the administrators don't take the expertise of teachers and librarians seriously and back down from this test.<br />

I suppose school districts are even more susceptible to the Dilbert Principle than corporations: incompetent people rise to management where they do the least amount of harm. Teaching is a difficult, draining, and challenging task; administering teachers is not. Why not trust and support the skilled people doing the most important work in a democracy?
