CSPAN2 Key Capitol Hill Hearings January 23, 2015

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. The federal government under no child left behind requires 17 standardized tests today to seven tests, seven in reading. Grade three through eight and once in high school. 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 ....

Dollars are well spent. From the standpoint about the concerns of the services provided, we think when you allow states to weaken the standards, and we have seen again, how states have used waivers to, in effect, create a day facto weakening of standards standards. We are deeply concerned. Well, i understand the need for flexzblety. But if the only principle here is that the states can do whatever they want, then they should raise their entaxes to pay for it. Throwing billions of federal dollars at the states with no accountability for the states of how they spend taxpayer money is not what we were sent here to do. So, thank you. Thank you, mr. Chairman. Thank you, senator warren. And i did welcome senator collins to the committee, which i should. Were delighted to have her back.

Discussion draft. I hope we can begin conversations about a truly bipartisan approach to help fix this broken law. I know the members on my side are anxious to begin work and to continue the long tradition of this committee tackling tough problems in a bipartisan fashion. Fixing no child left behind should not be a partisan issue. It should be one that we do work hand in hand not as democrats and republicans but as americans. This is an issue that is not about politics. It is about what is best for our kids. In our country we believe that every student should have access to a quality Public Education regardless of where they live or how they learn or how much money their parents make. That vision is a big part of what we mean when we talk about america, what makes our country great. Other countries in the world are investing in education. They are working every day to get it right for their students. China, india and others thin ....

Our number of graduates by over 1,000 students a year, increased on time Graduation Rate for our africanamerican, latino students by over 60 . We have decreased dropout rates by over 60 . We have gone from a School District with our students having the lowest rate of year on year student progress of any major district in the state to being now the district for three years in a row where our students on a student by student basis are demonstrating the highest rate of yearly academic progress. As a result our enrollment is booming as families come back to and stay in our schools. In the last seven years our enrollment has increased by a remarkable 25 . Nevertheless we continue to have significant achievement gaps between our students based on income and race and ethnicity. We are determined to eliminate those achievement gaps. One key to our progress is our refusal to be impr ....
