Ralph Ratto is an elementary school teacher in New York. He describes yesterday as "one of the darkest days in education." Testing started yesterday.

He says: “Folks, this is institutional child abuse! I have written about this and about how this is the time of year that I am ashamed to be a teacher. We all should be ashamed, when we make these children take these tests to fulfill a political agenda and provide absolutely no valid data that helps children excel.”
