Sorry Chairman Lee, I just don’t buy the spin. There should be NO reason for the delay. Except there is an election next Tuesday, and the test results will lead to more distrust of the government system.  How convenient the ABCs results will be released TWO days after the election.  The State Board of Education and the Department of Public Instruction show their arrogance by this political maneuvering.  Again Symbolism over Substance ? Rhetoric over Reality! The haughtiness to hold poorer families, those who attend Title One schools, hostage. With the release of the ABCs thousands of  families could be eligible for free tutoring or public school choice.  They have been waiting for months  to know their eligibility. This action is proof positive the children in government schools are simply political game pieces. The State Board of Education meeting is continuing today, just ignoring the issue.
