His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

Generally, the ACLU has been advising students that because they are required to go to school by law, administrators can discipline them for unexcused absences. But the ACLU also told students in an online training video that administrators can’t punish them more harshly because of the political nature of their demonstrations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The superintendents association — which is supporting the April 20 walkout— has drafted a list of suggestions for school administrators, including holding a teach-in, a school-led walkout to a spot on campus, or a session on bullying.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There are ways to engage and harness the students in civic engagement without compromising policies in place on attendance, participation and student safety,” said Noelle Ellerson Ng, associate director for policy and advocacy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some schools have embraced the walkouts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Mooresville, Indiana, administrators met with 10 high-school student leaders to work out a plan. Mooresville High School Principal Brian Disney said the students plan to use the school’s public address system to read short statements about mental illness, the importance of kindness and standing up against all school violence before inviting all students to gather in a school hallway for 17 minutes of silence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Anne Arundel County, Maryland, administrators are still talking with students about how they can participate without violating school rules.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think we all realize that for folks who are teenagers right now, this could well be a defining moment in their lives.

In Henrico County, Virginia, near Richmond, administrators sent an email to parents saying they are not sanctioning the March 14 walkout, but feel obligated to manage the event because of its heavy promotion on social media. Middle-school principals asked parents to sign a Google document stating whether they give their children permission to participate.

He's a product of California's community college system — and now its chancellor. He says it's a system that urgently needs to rethink how it delivers the courses students need, when and where they need them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's a fascinating idea, yet one that faces hurdles — not the least of which is the cost to get this new system up and running. Gov. Jerry Brown loves Oakley's idea and has proposed $100 million in startup funding in his budget, which state legislators have yet to approve.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I spoke with Oakley about his idea and why he thinks its time has come. Our conversation has been edited for length and clarity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>You already have 114 community colleges throughout California. All offer online courses. Why do you need to create a new online system and who exactly will it serve that's not being served already?\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These are individuals who cannot drop everything they're doing or come to our colleges and spend two-three years getting a degree or credential. They need short-term job skills in order to survive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the recession, we realized that millions of Californians in the workforce who have only a high school diploma were displaced in great numbers. But even those who survived the recession have no real prospects for future wage gains.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What kinds of credentials are you talking about and in what fields?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That would depend on the region of California people live in. We have a very diverse economy and we're looking at this by working with labor partners, the building trades, as well as large industry representatives like manufacturing, health care, medical coding or administration. These short-term credentials would take advantage of a worker's prior learning, folks who've been in the workforce for a long time and have lots of experience.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We would give them a short burst of job skills that employers would honor. This is not something that our community colleges currently focus on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, in this online model, an individual would be able to enroll and begin classes any time of the month rather than waiting for the traditional academic semester to begin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We also hope to get students interested in continuing their education. Our mission is social and economic mobility.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>If the state Legislature gives you the green light and the $100 million, do you have the people and resources to get it started?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There is no faculty yet because there is no college yet. But we would not have any problem recruiting faculty and staff from our own ranks. Thousands of faculty are already doing content development and working with employers to define the skills necessary which would be part of the curriculum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We can also tap into the abundance of education technology that has been created in California through our own research universities, Silicon Valley and the tech sector.

Why do you need to create a new online system and who exactly will it serve that's not being served already?\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These are individuals who cannot drop everything they're doing or come to our colleges and spend two-three years getting a degree or credential. They need short-term job skills in order to survive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the recession, we realized that millions of Californians in the workforce who have only a high school diploma were displaced in great numbers. But even those who survived the recession have no real prospects for future wage gains.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What kinds of credentials are you talking about and in what fields?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That would depend on the region of California people live in. We have a very diverse economy and we're looking at this by working with labor partners, the building trades, as well as large industry representatives like manufacturing, health care, medical coding or administration. These short-term credentials would take advantage of a worker's prior learning, folks who've been in the workforce for a long time and have lots of experience.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We would give them a short burst of job skills that employers would honor. This is not something that our community colleges currently focus on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, in this online model, an individual would be able to enroll and begin classes any time of the month rather than waiting for the traditional academic semester to begin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We also hope to get students interested in continuing their education. Our mission is social and economic mobility.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>If the state Legislature gives you the green light and the $100 million, do you have the people and resources to get it started?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There is no faculty yet because there is no college yet. But we would not have any problem recruiting faculty and staff from our own ranks. Thousands of faculty are already doing content development and working with employers to define the skills necessary which would be part of the curriculum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We can also tap into the abundance of education technology that has been created in California through our own research universities, Silicon Valley and the tech sector. All these components are ready and available to us.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Community college faculty members who are skeptical of this idea say that it would take quite a while to accredit such a system.

And people who know how to analyze that data are \u003ca href=\"https://www.glassdoor.com/List/Best-Jobs-in-America-LST_KQ0,20.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">highly employable\u003c/a> right now. As computing enters every part of life, high school teachers are beginning to see it as their duty to prepare students for this changing world.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Los Angeles Unified School District has teamed up with UCLA to develop an \u003ca href=\"http://www.mobilizingcs.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">introduction to data science\u003c/a> course that meets University of California and California State University \u003ca href=\"http://admission.universityofcalifornia.edu/freshman/requirements/a-g-requirements/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">application requirements\u003c/a>. Students use a blend of statistics and computer science to analyze data sets they’ve either collected or found.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They’re learning how to think critically with data,” said Suyen Machado, who helped write the course curriculum and coordinates the program that has spread to 30 schools in six districts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In one project, students look at 15,000 data points from a Centers for Disease Control survey on teen health. The survey asked teens about bullying, how much soda they drink and whether they wear seat belts. Data science students look for patterns in the data and try to draw conclusions from what they find there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”aLFrREOVpvGG6lhDv0bQbSaV3wdXZqzL”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They ask questions about the data, analyze it and interpret it. If their initial question isn’t answered, or they have new ones, they return to the data and ask a new set of questions. The class discusses the ethical implication of data collection, how surveys can be skewed and how different visualizations tell particular stories. Teachers say engagement with the course is much higher than more traditionally taught math classes because it feels relevant to students.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Machado particularly remembers one senior who hadn’t passed any of her high school math classes. She was far behind in credits, with no chance of graduating, but she loved data science.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She was so captivated by the course. It was the first time she would come to school almost every day because she didn’t want to miss [Introduction to Data Science],” Machado said. “She knew she wasn’t going to graduate, but she still came to school because she was really engaged in the course.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the new take on math is popular with students, some teachers are more wary of change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Because it’s not well known, people don’t really understand it,” Machado explained.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”2bZff1ydG1ya9iPKZPHU1KIRxV1ZZBRm”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But, she sees the opposite as well. Some teachers want to try something new and are excited to offer a different math pathway for students.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I wouldn’t say it’s an easy class,” said Monica Casillas, who taught the data science class for three years. “It’s very rigorous.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Casillas also taught an Advanced Placement Statistics class, so she has a good comparison point.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said the two classes are very different. Rather than focusing on paper and pencil computations, the emphasis in data science is on mathematical reasoning, asking good questions and making inferences.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Seeing my kids being excited about it, you know as a teacher, it just gets you excited,” Casillas said. And she says the skills her students take out of the class are useful as they analyze the news and progress in their education.\u003c/p>\n\n",

As computing enters every part of life, high school teachers are beginning to see it as their duty to prepare students for this changing world.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Los Angeles Unified School District has teamed up with UCLA to develop an \u003ca href=\"http://www.mobilizingcs.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">introduction to data science\u003c/a> course that meets University of California and California State University \u003ca href=\"http://admission.universityofcalifornia.edu/freshman/requirements/a-g-requirements/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">application requirements\u003c/a>.

The survey asked teens about bullying, how much soda they drink and whether they wear seat belts.

If their initial question isn’t answered, or they have new ones, they return to the data and ask a new set of questions. The class discusses the ethical implication of data collection, how surveys can be skewed and how different visualizations tell particular stories. Teachers say engagement with the course is much higher than more traditionally taught math classes because it feels relevant to students.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>It’s Monday morning story time at the \u003ca href=\"http://www.oaklandlibrary.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Oakland Public Library’s\u003c/a> downtown branch. Children’s librarian Mahasin Abuwi Aleem reads to a couple dozen kids. Today, she's starting with a book called \u003ca href=\"https://www.publishersweekly.com/978-0-689-84693-9\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\"Abiyoyo,\"\u003c/a> based on a South African folk song.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Once upon a time there was a little boy who played the ukulele,” she starts, and the children sit rapt attention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kids' books can be pretty fun and they can help children learn about difficult subjects, like potty training, fighting with siblings and, for many kids, what the role of a police officer is.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But children's literature hasn't necessarily kept up with the times on that last topic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Next time you’re reading a story to a child take a look at how the book talks about good guys and bad guys. Is there any mention that in the United States people are innocent until proven guilty? If there are cops in the story, are they wearing body cameras?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>'The Talk'\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aleem uses books to help introduce law enforcement to her own three kids, now aged 3, 8 and 11.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In books, they were mostly depicted as community helpers,\" says Aleem. \"And as [my kids] have gotten older and been more aware of current events, we’ve talked more and more about how, just like in every field, there are people who are thoughtful and conscious and want to do the right thing. And there are people on the police force who may not.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Due in part to the \u003ca href=\"https://blacklivesmatter.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Black Lives Matter\u003c/a> movement, those are conversations that lots of parents are having these days — and have long been a part of child rearing for African-American families like Aleem’s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To help guide those difficult discussions, Oakland librarians have created \u003ca href=\"https://docs.google.com/document/d/1rytbtFbHtH6UYRLzUQDf3h4gJ6noSPIAxhHJsfo-QTw/edit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a toolkit\u003c/a> for evaluating children’s books that feature police. It's a publicly available document to help librarians and other educators examine whether a book accurately reflects how the law really works or reflects the full range of children’s realities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The problem we have with police books right now is there really isn’t much that represents that fearful side,” explains Amy Martin, the Oakland Public Library's children’s collection management librarian. Martin spearheaded the creation of the toolkit. She takes out a picture book called \"I’m Afraid Your Teddy Is In Trouble Today.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The book opens with two police officers confronting the reader at their front door, telling them their teddy bear had a wild party and trashed the house, and now is in big trouble.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Recognizing Fears, Explaining Rights\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For a child who’s come home to a parent being arrested, that could be a really, really frightening image,” Martin says. So it may not be the best thing to read to that kid. Martin fully breaks down some problems with the book on a blog called \u003ca href=\"http://readingwhilewhite.blogspot.com/2018/01/rethinking-books-about-police-putting_8.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Reading While White\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The toolkit doesn’t review specific books. Instead, it provides questions, like: Does this book explain children’s rights to have a parent or other adult present during questioning? Does it imply that children will always be safe if they follow officers' instructions? Does the book make a distinction between prison and jail?\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11650920\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 400px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11650920 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/Amy-Martin-2-books-800x1067.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/Amy-Martin-2-books-800x1067.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/Amy-Martin-2-books-160x213.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/Amy-Martin-2-books-1020x1360.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/Amy-Martin-2-books.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/Amy-Martin-2-books-1180x1573.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/Amy-Martin-2-books-960x1280.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/Amy-Martin-2-books-240x320.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/Amy-Martin-2-books-375x500.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/Amy-Martin-2-books-520x693.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Oakland Public Library's children’s collection management librarian Amy Martin\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“Everyone’s innocent until proven guilty, and in almost every children’s book I’ve looked at that involves police, there’s language right from the start about guilt,\" says Martin. \"Like they will call them 'bad guys'; some books will call them 'criminals.'\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Martin got supportive feedback from an Oakland police lieutenant and other groups before publishing the guide, which is being used throughout Oakland’s library system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ellie Grimmer, who came to story time at the library, says she’s grateful for guidance about how to talk with her two kids.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There have been times where we’ve read stories and afterwards, when the kids are away, my husband and I are like 'Well, that’s kind of true, about police, but sometimes it’s not,'\" says Grimmer. \"It depends on what you look like and where you’re from. ...

Children’s librarian Mahasin Abuwi Aleem reads to a couple dozen kids. Today, she's starting with a book called \u003ca href=\"https://www.publishersweekly.com/978-0-689-84693-9\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\"Abiyoyo,\"\u003c/a> based on a South African folk song.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Once upon a time there was a little boy who played the ukulele,” she starts, and the children sit rapt attention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kids' books can be pretty fun and they can help children learn about difficult subjects, like potty training, fighting with siblings and, for many kids, what the role of a police officer is.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But children's literature hasn't necessarily kept up with the times on that last topic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Next time you’re reading a story to a child take a look at how the book talks about good guys and bad guys. Is there any mention that in the United States people are innocent until proven guilty? If there are cops in the story, are they wearing body cameras?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

And there are people on the police force who may not.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Due in part to the \u003ca href=\"https://blacklivesmatter.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Black Lives Matter\u003c/a> movement, those are conversations that lots of parents are having these days — and have long been a part of child rearing for African-American families like Aleem’s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To help guide those difficult discussions, Oakland librarians have created \u003ca href=\"https://docs.google.com/document/d/1rytbtFbHtH6UYRLzUQDf3h4gJ6noSPIAxhHJsfo-QTw/edit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a toolkit\u003c/a> for evaluating children’s books that feature police. It's a publicly available document to help librarians and other educators examine whether a book accurately reflects how the law really works or reflects the full range of children’s realities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The problem we have with police books right now is there really isn’t much that represents that fearful side,” explains Amy Martin, the Oakland Public Library's children’s collection management librarian. Martin spearheaded the creation of the toolkit. She takes out a picture book called \"I’m Afraid Your Teddy Is In Trouble Today.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The book opens with two police officers confronting the reader at their front door, telling them their teddy bear had a wild party and trashed the house, and now is in big trouble.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Recognizing Fears, Explaining Rights\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For a child who’s come home to a parent being arrested, that could be a really, really frightening image,” Martin says. So it may not be the best thing to read to that kid. Martin fully breaks down some problems with the book on a blog called \u003ca href=\"http://readingwhilewhite.blogspot.com/2018/01/rethinking-books-about-police-putting_8.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Reading While White\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The toolkit doesn’t review specific books. Instead, it provides questions, like: Does this book explain children’s rights to have a parent or other adult present during questioning? Does it imply that children will always be safe if they follow officers' instructions? Does the book make a distinction between prison and jail?\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11650920\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 400px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11650920 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/Amy-Martin-2-books-800x1067.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/Amy-Martin-2-books-800x1067.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/Amy-Martin-2-books-160x213.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/Amy-Martin-2-books-1020x1360.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/Amy-Martin-2-books.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/Amy-Martin-2-books-1180x1573.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/Amy-Martin-2-books-960x1280.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/Amy-Martin-2-books-240x320.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/Amy-Martin-2-books-375x500.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/Amy-Martin-2-books-520x693.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Oakland Public Library's children’s collection management librarian Amy Martin\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“Everyone’s innocent until proven guilty, and in almost every children’s book I’ve looked at that involves police, there’s language right from the start about guilt,\" says Martin. \"Like they will call them 'bad guys'; some books will call them 'criminals.'\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Martin got supportive feedback from an Oakland police lieutenant and other groups before publishing the guide, which is being used throughout Oakland’s library system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ellie Grimmer, who came to story time at the library, says she’s grateful for guidance about how to talk with her two kids.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There have been times where we’ve read stories and afterwards, when the kids are away, my husband and I are like 'Well, that’s kind of true, about police, but sometimes it’s not,'\" says Grimmer. \"It depends on what you look like and where you’re from. ...

The district also provides free optional SAT prep sessions on Saturdays -- an extra edge that historically has been available only to students from wealthier families.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The whole idea that you can diagnose strengths and areas where improvement is needed, and make better use of time and resources, is a game-changer,” said district spokesperson Chris Eftychiou. “And it’s especially a game-changer when parents who might be working two or three jobs to put food on the table don’t have to pay for these services.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Long Beach Unified has \u003ca href=\"https://edsource.org/2017/california-education-officials-reject-long-beachs-request-to-replace-statewide-assessment-with-sat/577701\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tried\u003c/a> once before to exempt itself from giving the Smarter Balanced tests the state currently requires for all 11th-graders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those customized, computer-based tests were adopted in 2015 to align with the state’s Common Core educational standards in math and English. Advocates said they would more precisely gauge students’ ability levels and progress, and the California State University system has used them to help judge whether test-takers were ready for college-level courses. But the annual release of Smarter Balanced results has also been used to highlight which schools and districts have made little or no progress in improving academic achievement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/3473015-Account-SAT-Waiver-LongBeach030817.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">letter\u003c/a> to the state Board of Education last year, Long Beach Superintendent Christopher Steinhauser asked for “relief from unnecessary, duplicative testing.” The SAT, he argued, was far more relevant to college admissions. Removing the Smarter Balanced tests would give students more time to focus on it and the Advanced Placement exams that also factor into colleges’ decisions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Torlakson and board President Michael Kirst disagreed. The SAT had not been reviewed to ensure it reflected Common Core standards, they wrote in a \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/3474271-Account-SAT-Waiver-LongBeach-Answer-022317.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">response\u003c/a>. It “is not designed to measure the lower end of the spectrum well” and could disadvantage English language learners and students with disabilities. Request denied.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Torlakson hasn’t yet taken a formal position on AB 1951, but said in a statement to CALmatters that “further research is needed, as these tests were not designed for this purpose. ... We need to ensure these tests are accessible to all students and address other concerns before California considers their use.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More than 30 districts in California will this year give the SAT for free during the school day. That’s up from four in 2015. Those districts could opt out of Smarter Balanced testing in 11th grade if the bill is signed into law. Some districts have come out in support of the bill, including San Jose Unified and Sacramento City Unified.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The chair of the Assembly Higher Education Committee, Jose Medina, is also on board. O’Donnell says he hopes to bring the bill up for a committee hearing in late March. A previous version passed the committee last session but never made it to a floor vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One question the state would need to answer: At a time when school accountability has become an obsession, how would it compare student performance among districts that choose the SAT or ACT, and those that stick with Smarter Balanced?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“From a parent perspective, having my daughters take multiple tests creates a disconnect and is inefficient,” said Samantha Dobbins Tran, senior managing director for education at Children Now, an advocacy group that has supported the Common Core standards. “It comes down to, do you create a context where we don’t have the data for accountability purposes? That’s going to lead to huge concerns from an equity perspective.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A growing number of states, including Illinois, Michigan, Maine and Colorado, require the SAT or ACT for high school graduation. Under the federal Every Student Succeeds Act, some of those states have received permission to forgo other standardized tests in favor of the college entrance exams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those changes came amid a push to expand college entrance testing on the part of the College Board, the powerful nonprofit organization that administers both the SAT -- which is more widely used in California than the ACT -- and Advanced Placement exams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The College Board earned \u003ca href=\"https://projects.propublica.org/nonprofits/organizations/131623965\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">$916 million\u003c/a> in revenue in 2015 and spent nearly $130,000 lobbying California legislators last year. It has been \u003ca href=\"https://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/04/23/college-board-cashing-in-_n_1446463.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">criticized\u003c/a> for taking advantage of its market position to charge students fees for everything from late registrations to sending score reports to colleges. But it’s also taken some steps to make the tests more affordable, allowing low-income students to send unlimited score reports to schools for free starting this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Joshua Hyman, a researcher at the University of Connecticut, \u003ca href=\"https://www.mitpressjournals.org/doi/full/10.1162/EDFP_a_00206\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">studied\u003c/a> the effects of mandatory ACT tests in Michigan’s public high schools and found that it led to many more low-income students not only taking the test, but performing well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s a hidden group of high-achieving students that don’t even get to the point of taking these exams,” Hyman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prior to the change, for every 10 low-income Michigan students who scored high enough to get into a selective four-year college, there were another five who would have done well but didn’t take the exam. Afterward, Hyman found, the state saw a small bump in the number of disadvantaged students attending college.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hyman acknowledged that test companies also profit when states increase the number of exam-takers. But he pointed out that providing the SAT or ACT costs less than many other efforts to reduce disparities in college attendance, such as providing more financial aid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This kind of policy is quite cheap and could level the playing field,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CALmatters.org\u003c/a> is a nonprofit, nonpartisan media venture explaining California policies and politics.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This story was done with support from the College Futures Foundation.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

But the annual release of Smarter Balanced results has also been used to highlight which schools and districts have made little or no progress in improving academic achievement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/3473015-Account-SAT-Waiver-LongBeach030817.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">letter\u003c/a> to the state Board of Education last year, Long Beach Superintendent Christopher Steinhauser asked for “relief from unnecessary, duplicative testing.” The SAT, he argued, was far more relevant to college admissions. Removing the Smarter Balanced tests would give students more time to focus on it and the Advanced Placement exams that also factor into colleges’ decisions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Torlakson and board President Michael Kirst disagreed. The SAT had not been reviewed to ensure it reflected Common Core standards, they wrote in a \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/3474271-Account-SAT-Waiver-LongBeach-Answer-022317.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">response\u003c/a>. It “is not designed to measure the lower end of the spectrum well” and could disadvantage English language learners and students with disabilities. Request denied.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Torlakson hasn’t yet taken a formal position on AB 1951, but said in a statement to CALmatters that “further research is needed, as these tests were not designed for this purpose. ... We need to ensure these tests are accessible to all students and address other concerns before California considers their use.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More than 30 districts in California will this year give the SAT for free during the school day. That’s up from four in 2015. Those districts could opt out of Smarter Balanced testing in 11th grade if the bill is signed into law. Some districts have come out in support of the bill, including San Jose Unified and Sacramento City Unified.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The chair of the Assembly Higher Education Committee, Jose Medina, is also on board. O’Donnell says he hopes to bring the bill up for a committee hearing in late March. A previous version passed the committee last session but never made it to a floor vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One question the state would need to answer: At a time when school accountability has become an obsession, how would it compare student performance among districts that choose the SAT or ACT, and those that stick with Smarter Balanced?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“From a parent perspective, having my daughters take multiple tests creates a disconnect and is inefficient,” said Samantha Dobbins Tran, senior managing director for education at Children Now, an advocacy group that has supported the Common Core standards. “It comes down to, do you create a context where we don’t have the data for accountability purposes? That’s going to lead to huge concerns from an equity perspective.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A growing number of states, including Illinois, Michigan, Maine and Colorado, require the SAT or ACT for high school graduation. Under the federal Every Student Succeeds Act, some of those states have received permission to forgo other standardized tests in favor of the college entrance exams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those changes came amid a push to expand college entrance testing on the part of the College Board, the powerful nonprofit organization that administers both the SAT -- which is more widely used in California than the ACT -- and Advanced Placement exams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The College Board earned \u003ca href=\"https://projects.propublica.org/nonprofits/organizations/131623965\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">$916 million\u003c/a> in revenue in 2015 and spent nearly $130,000 lobbying California legislators last year. It has been \u003ca href=\"https://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/04/23/college-board-cashing-in-_n_1446463.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">criticized\u003c/a> for taking advantage of its market position to charge students fees for everything from late registrations to sending score reports to colleges. But it’s also taken some steps to make the tests more affordable, allowing low-income students to send unlimited score reports to schools for free starting this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Joshua Hyman, a researcher at the University of Connecticut, \u003ca href=\"https://www.mitpressjournals.org/doi/full/10.1162/EDFP_a_00206\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">studied\u003c/a> the effects of mandatory ACT tests in Michigan’s public high schools and found that it led to many more low-income students not only taking the test, but performing well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s a hidden group of high-achieving students that don’t even get to the point of taking these exams,” Hyman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prior to the change, for every 10 low-income Michigan students who scored high enough to get into a selective four-year college, there were another five who would have done well but didn’t take the exam. Afterward, Hyman found, the state saw a small bump in the number of disadvantaged students attending college.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hyman acknowledged that test companies also profit when states increase the number of exam-takers. But he pointed out that providing the SAT or ACT costs less than many other efforts to reduce disparities in college attendance, such as providing more financial aid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This kind of policy is quite cheap and could level the playing field,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CALmatters.org\u003c/a> is a nonprofit, nonpartisan media venture explaining California policies and politics.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
