Calling Citrus County Public School Teachers

The School Board is developing a resolution to speak out against the state required mandates that are harming public education and to ask for a three year delay on the use of Florida State Assessment results in determining school grades, student promotion, and graduation or for teacher evaluations. These new standards and assessment were never field-tested with Florida students rather with students from Utah, which does not mirror the demographics of Florida. In 1998 before issuing school grades using the FCAT, the FDOE properly field tested the FCAT. At this time there have been over 32 changes to the accountability system over the last three years.

We are asking for you to share your top three concerns. These don’t have to be long explanation. We want to share the stress, burden and injustice of what is negatively affecting our schools.
