In Connecticut, my understanding, although I haven't seen the actual litigation, is that they want to measure every other year and not provide annual assessment as is required in the statute.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Each year is a new year.
Well, one of them is annual assessment in grades 3-8. It's integral to the implementation of everything.
Dates that come around every year help us measure progress in our lives. One annual event, New Year's Day, is a time of reflection and resolution.
The whole purpose of annual reviews is to keep you abreast of whether or not you are fulfilling the requirements of tenure.
There are years that ask questions and years that answer.
Beginning with the No Child Left Behind law and continuing today with Race to the Top, the federal emphasis on standardized assessments has become so excessive that it has modified state and district behavior in troubling ways.
Don't just count your years, make your years count.
My subcommittee will be thoroughly investigating this issue and demanding answers from Census officials on allegations that the Census Bureau is changing the wording of survey questions used to determine our nation's annual report on health insurance coverage.
You do something annual every year, don't you?
It is not for the State Department or even the Secretary of State to say when and how the resources of the American people will be spent.
