Seventy-five California teachers are proven to be test-cheaters, according to this article I found this morning in the email newsletter sent out on Mondays by Assemblyman Haynes:

One Poor Test Result - Cheating Teachers
"05-21-04: One cheater whispered answers in students' ears as they took the exam. Another photocopied test booklets so students would know vocabulary words in advance. Another erased score sheets marked with the wrong answers and substituted correct ones. None of these violations involving California's standardized tests were committed by devious students: These sneaky offenders were teachers. Since a statewide testing program began five years ago, more than 200 California teachers have been investigated for allegedly helping students on state exams, and at least 75 of those cases have been proved, according to documents obtained by The Times."
All I can say is... there must be a lot of pressure on those teachers to perform!

One more reason for private schools, homeschooling, and the total separation of school and state. By the way, have you seen the new Honest Education website?
