Governor Raimondo’s Education Commissioner Wants to Further Erode Student Achievement
… that can be the only conclusion from his stated intent, as reported in today’s Providence Journal.
State education Commissioner Ken Wagner wants to remove a controversial new standardized test as a high school graduation requirement for students.
