ALBERTA MAY DISCONTINUE PROVINCE-WIDE TESTING
Thomas Lukaszuk, Alberta’s Deputy Premier, has called our school performance reports a misuse of provincial test results. He claims they mislead you and he wants to redesign the tests so we can no longer produce the reports.
Our school performance reports are valid and used by many thousands of thoughtful parents each year. We believe that you, Alberta’s parents, should have the right to decide how to use them.
If you agree that the Alberta government should keep the provincial tests and leave our reports alone, send us an e-mail. We’ll keep you up-to-date on this situation as well as on all other news about our school performance reports.
