More educators comments from the NYTimes...

I propose a test to evaluate polticians, given to the public at large. Politicians will be rated ineffective, developing, effective, or highly effective based on the public's test scores. The test will include approximately 80 civics based questions dealing with public policy, both domestic and foreign, as well as local when applicable. Salaries will be adjusted according to test scores, and ineffective politicians will be fired and remain ineligible to hold future office.

About Me

My photo
El Diablo
I am a blogger, certified public school administrator and school attendance teacher. I studied American education history at the doctoral level defended a thesis on the Puerto Rican bibliophile Arthur A. Schomburg (1874-1938). I have lectured extensively, serving as a curator of exhibits on Schomburg in many institutions in Central and Western New York. I am one of the few Schomburg scholars today lecturing on his Puerto Rican heritage, and his contributions to the history of American education and black intellectual history. Also, a tenured school attendance teacher, served as chairperson of the New York State Attendance Teachers Association and executive board member. Also, past delegate chair, delegate, alternate, council of delegates in the union, and New York State Delegate to the NEA Representative Assembly.
