BREAKING NEWS: The Greater Florida Consortium of School Boards (of which Monroe County is a member) has just passed a motion calling for an “immediate halt to using statewide state-mandated testing results for any purpose other than diagnostic purposes.” The motion, which was reworded to “suspend high-stakes testing,” passed unanimously. The Greater Florida Consortium of School Boards is comprised of 11 of Florida’s coastal school districts — Collier, Lee, Broward, Miami-Dade, Palm Beach, Monroe, Charlotte, Sarasota, Pinellas, Indian River and St. Lucie. Together, the districts represent more than 42 percent of the state’s public school students. Perhaps Tallahassee will take notice? naplesnews/news/education/greater-florida-consortium-of-school-boards-passes-motion-to-suspend-high-stakes-testing
