Adopted Board Resolutions [against high-stakes testing in the state of Texas]

From TASA.net, the website for the Texas Association of School Administrators.  Imagine this.  As of today, 793 districts in Texas out of 1,265 total in the state have adopted resolutions against high-stakes testing.  Remember that in 1999, we had a whole federal court trial over this.  Sure, the legislature over-reached in the context of HB 3 passed in 2009, but we already had a crisis—particularly impacting children of color well over a decade ago.  So this is long overdue and much welcomed, but let's own up to the fact that our community missed the boat by a long shot when so much was being done so much earlier (pre-NCLB) to address and counter what many of us already knew way back then was playing out in our children's classrooms and how they were being harmed by it.  Powerful interests—including those within the public at large—are and have been at play here.

Adopted Board Resolutions

School Transformation
The following is a list of school districts that have adopted a version of the Resolution Concerning High Stakes, Standardized Testing of Texas Public School Students. As of September 20, 2012, 793 districts representing more than 4.2 million students have notified us they've adopted the resolution. That's 77 percent of Texas school districts and 86 percent of all Texas public school students. The number following the district name is the ESC region number. Though individual districts may have made some modifications to the specific wording of the document TASA provided, the spirit of the resolution remained intact.
