Dallas ISD Resolution on High Stakes Testing

On 5-24-12 the Dallas ISD Board of Trustees passed the following significantly modified resolution on high stakes testing with only one member objecting, Trustee Carla Ranger.  She was concerned as to how significantly different it was from the 510+ other resolutions passed by other school boards in Texas.  Keeping a consistent message, as simple as possible for the legislature, was the goal.

Below is the wording to the DISD resolution.  It can be compared to the original resolution passed by the majority of the rest of Texas, online at http://schoolarchiveproject.blogspot.com/2012/04/resolution-concerning-high-stakes.html.
