    Without warning, New Mexico officials release student test results on Friday afternoon. New results show less than a third of all New Mexico students are proficient in reading and only about 1/5th are proficient in math.

        Meet the new results, same as the old results. But not for long! Also, standardized tests are blech. Watching my kid take those tests reinforced my belief that they tell us less than nothing. Thankfully, he is an intelligent, educated adult anyway.

        So - to be clear - PED is now looking for a test that will boost these dismal results?🤷🏻‍♂️

        Interesting. Makes me wonder why companies won't move here when they hear this. And, the APS head makes $200k?

        I'm not surprised... APS is extremely corrupt. I have to pay to send my kids to private school. @BetsyDeVosED @realDonaldTrump when will vouchers be available?! It's unfair our tax $ is going to thieves here!!!!! Our governor is the worst

        I don’t think overall proficiency tells the entire story. I really liked the growth model @NMPED was using with students groups that had 3 years of data.

        “Without warning”? Lol! Prepare yourselves, it’s...more of the same. Not surprising. Standard tests tell you more about compliance to a backwards accountability system and what zip code a kid lives in. Our kids deserve better.

        Or perhaps Twitter user’s understanding of grammar is not what they think it is?https://www.merriam-webster.com/words-at-play/fewer-vs-less …
