Education Cats

Well, She was on again about the state of education here in our country. Kasey and I heard Her go on and on about how all the tests are taking the joy out of learning as well as teaching. They are lucky She is not teaching now, or She would have these big speeches where She would be working, and probably get fired. Here is what makes Her so upset. There are these big tests, and they are all the same. The outcome of the tests tells whether the kids will go to the next grade, or go to school at extra times. No pressure there, She says, but I think She is joking about that. Also, whether the teacher gets high marks, and whether the school gets extra money.  Teachers might as well be baby sitters, She says, because their opinion doesn't count. To tell you the truth, I am getting tired of hearing Her complain about it, because there is nothing She can do about it, and She has adorable cats to care for. He tells Her to write a book about it, but She thinks that is just to shut Her up. She might just write that book anyway, just to show him. As long as we have fish for dinner, I don't care. Stay tuned.
