According to Albert Camus, "The gods had condemned Sisyphus to ceaselessly rolling a rock to the top of a mountain, whence the stone would fall back of its own weight. They had thought with some reason that there is no more dreadful punishment than futile and hopeless labor." Clearly, the gods had never met a public school teacher.

No test scores for you!
My non-proficient students took the reading proficiency test last month. I found out yesterday that the scores came in. The principal shared the overall passing rate (around 30%) with the school, but I was told that teachers will not be getting the scores or any of the score data. How am I supposed to know how each of my students did and what I need to work on in order to help them be proficient by the time the test is given again in March? So much for being effective.
