Update: As of mid-day Wednesday SB 215 is off the calendar

Four Colorado legislators will determine the fate of what has become a national movement to turn back over-testing in the state.

Senate bill 215, reduces some tests, while mandating that kindergarteners pass a reading test or face remedial education measures. The bill is the spiritual child of SB 191, authored by Senator Mike Johnston, a previously passed bill requiring testing in every subject to be used to fire teachers whose students failed to test well. Parents across Colorado are urging defeat of SB215, and that four key legislators, Vicki Marble, Chris Holbert, Laura Woods and Tim Neville be contacted.

What you can do:

Get the legislators on record: Ask for their position on SB215

Tell them parents oppose the bill, and ask them to oppose SB215
