Constitutional Amendment #3 would weaken local control of our public schools, incur substantial costs for the tests, and degrade teachers' abilities to negotiate the evaluation system.
Why is this important?
I have been a teacher all my life and I have experienced student evaluations of teachers. These should be seen by administrators but judged in context of the course and the teacher's grading. Local control is important to every school system, and teachers should not be excluded from constructing the evaluation process.
