Way to go, kids: City public school students have tested higher and higher
A NY Daily News editorial on the new standards for NYS tests:
Over the last four years, nobody has cheered louder for academic achievements racked up by city public school students. We stand by our applause.
Lost in the uproar over the state's new testing standards has been the fact that kids have made real gains in learning - outpacing their peers around the state and across the country.
The hue and cry triggered by the state's action has left the widespread misimpression that students are performing no better than they had, and may even have fallen behind. False. False. False.
