MONTGOMERYVILLE PA. – March 11, 2008 – Are standardized tests failing our children? In the name of accountability, are we cheating them out of creative teaching that inspires a lifelong love of learning? A town meeting for interested Bucks and Montgomery county community members on Thursday, March 27 from 7 to 9 p.m. at Upper Merion Middle School, 450 Keebler Road, King of Prussia, will create a dialogue to address those questions. The town meeting, sponsored by Council for the Advancement of Public Schools (CAPS), will provide a forum for audience members to voice their opinions and share their views with panelists representing administrators, teachers, legislators, parents and community members from across Bucks and Montgomery counties. It will focus on the ramifications of increased high-stakes testing and how to offer each student the opportunity to reach his or her intellectual capacity.
