Waste of money
Re “Report cards score schools,” Jan. 12
No wonder students in the Los Angeles Unified School District are not doing well, considering the money spent on programs like report cards for schools.
The information would have equal value if it were made public in the media as opposed to spending $700,000 to mail it home.
It’s all a waste: The test does not have any significance for the students, thus few are motivated to do more than “bubble” random answers year after year.
