Every teacher I teacher I know thinks standardized testing is bullshit. They're forced to "teach the test". At the same time, a decline in test scores means the system is failing even by its own metrics . If I ever heard a teacher say "yeah, their test scores are lacking, but they're definitely gaining a valuble education," then the decline in test scores wouldn't be concerning. But I've never heard that.
