Welcome to the Coalition for Better Education
"Coercion has no place in a democratic society, least of all in school where it flies in the face of everything that quality education should stand for!"
Conny Jensen
The Coalition for Better Education was started by a group of aspiring educators from the University of Northern Colorado, and has expanded to include teachers, parents and students across the state. Our goal is to expand awareness of the costs and limitations of the Colorado Student Assessment Program (CSAP/TCAP) and "No Child Left Behind" (NCLB), and to empower parents and teachers.
Here's a letter from a parent to the school board. We offer it here as a model.
