Performing students to help prepare them for college. We read philosophical tests ranging and wrote revised College Level essays. At the same time i worked with the lowest performing students who had yet to pass the state tests of the with them we did mindless test prep. Even though i was really good at it getting 100 of those students to pass their exams in my final year doing it i was doing the students no favors. I think about a senior who could hardly write and struggled to read. Sure she passed the test but she was still ready, she was not ready for the Community College work she encountered that fall. When we focus efforts only helping struggling students jump over a hurd definitely mandated exams the learning an opportunity gap widens. My Current School harvest collegiate is a member of new york performing standard consortium of a group of 48 schools that offer more alternative model. We use more rigorous Testing Systems than state exams. Highstakes assessments are not on demand
Let me me before you keep thinking about your answer to do something else. To frame the question we are talking about questioning and accountability and that goes off into education and i have to refresh myself with 15 minutes even though ive been fooling about it for years.

And then three tests in since i intend once in grades three through five and six through nine and once in high school there are 17 tests that must be used by the law as a primary means of determining the academic performance of the state. Florida reported that. There are 183 state and local tests in addition to the 17 federal tests and when this report they start to make a spotlight on the test is that maybe that is too many tests and they started getting fewer tests. So if we are talking about what kind of tests. Its whether whether it is the fe
Explicitly say you shall not regulate or oversee the internet under title 2. Do you agree with that . As ive testified consistently, i think the cost and damage to americans ambitions of bradband in title 2 far outweigh the benefits. I think if the narrow task before us is to create solid bullet proof Net Neutrality, which we accept, we believe that can be done without resorting to that hammer. Mr. Chairman, i want to thank the former chairman for those comments. I do believe that its wise to put this out as a draft. I think there are some very valid questions and my friends on the minority are asking some of those questions about how to perfect the language. I have some concerns myself about certain parts of the draft. But the base principle, the fact we should not regulate the internet under title 2, i think is beyond question. If we start from that premise i think the discussion draft is an excellent document and we can iron out the details through these hearings. If you take it to
Social service, criminal justice, health care. All these systems have to be held accountable to ensuring equity. Even to that extent, we have to have conversations about how we recognize injustice. I would like to add the name of Tanisha Anderson to the list of those killed at the hands of police. We mention, tamir rice, eric gardner, michael brown, and we have to uplift the name of women who have experienced disproportionate abuse or had died at the hands of police. The conversation has to happen every day in every setting in order for us to move past as a move past hour past as a country and our present. I have heard people say we just have to get over it. But we have iterations of disproportionally and racism today. These are conversations that have to happen. We all have to be collectively a part of that. In the same way that we have many people of various races and ethnicities and ages uplifting the black lives matter movement. You will see black and white people and latino people
