Oh I didn't "speak" my self clearly. I was not talking about how we treat
people. But what is the difference in what we perceive and real and what is
real.
Like the kid that sits in my classroom and I think he dose not have a clue
and then when I test him he knows it all. What I perceive and what is real is
not always the same.

But I do like what you wrote.  :)     And agree.

      That is why I wrote.  I keep getting all the school boards and TEA only
looking at the scores and not the real picture of how far the student has
progressed. So when everyone runs to the OP they keep this point in mind.
See above statements.

For those who do not know me I am a teacher and very dedicated to my
students,
as well as to education. My favorite activity in the SCA is to participate in
Demos. Especially at the libraries in the summer. Then to watch the children
walk out with their arms full of books.  The seed is planted.

   I think you are wrong here. You have to do some kind of comparing to set
your baseline of understanding and Criteria.

Thank you it means a lot to me.

And the respect I have for you is why I spoke up.
