Kids will be testing the Test |
|
When elementary and middle school students sit down next month for the annual state testing, they will get their first taste of new national academic standards coming to New Jersey –- even if they may not know it. The Christie administration will begin to “field test” questions derived from the new Common Core State Standards into the next NJASK tests, given to every student Grades 3-8. New Jersey is one of 45 states moving toward the Common Core standards, along with new testing that is being developed through a national consortium, advertised as providing more depth and rigor to existing state standards that vary across the country. http://bit.ly/Hk9LzY |

Winners and losers under Christie's school budget |
 The first details are out about Gov. Christie's trumpeted increase in state aid for public schools next year, showing a much more complicated picture that means big increases for some schools and sharp cuts for others. In all, 95 districts would get less, from a cut of 13 percent down to minuscule dips. Jersey City is slated to get a single dollar more. Other districts in for significant cuts include Pemberton Township, Winslow and Washington Township. http://bit.ly/wI5s1S |
