I don't understand it given the number that are against testing to excess and then basing funding on...

My daughter is in kindergarten this year. She is obsessed with winning the approval and friendship of this one little girl in her class who is also in the extended care program with her. This girl is a "leader" (or "alpha") and many girls seem very taken with her ... even the older girls in...
