Porter v. Perdue on education

Don't think I'll wade into Dublin state Rep. (and House Minority Leader) DuBose Porter's argument with Gov. Sonny Perdue over education and SAT scores, other than to suggest that you read Perdue's press release and Porter's responding op-ed.

If you haven't already.

And I guess I can say that it looks like Gov. Perdue showed a bit too much of his chin, and Porter landed a pretty good right.

Here's a comment about education from one who spent 23+ years as an educator. Testing will not improve education. Poor performance is closely linked to poverty, poor nutrition, poor medical care (including the need for glasses, dental care, and hearing correction), and the stressed households that result from all of the above.
