Ban the iReady Diagnostic

The Issue

Problem
Within the Bethlehem Central School District, there is an online "learning" program called iReady. Students have to complete ten lessons in ten weeks, which wouldn't be as much of a problem if they didn't take 45 minutes and actually taught students material.

Solution
The solution to this idea, we feel, is to simply stop using iReady. Why pay for it if it doesn't help students?

Personal story
The district will pay roughly $300,000 for your grade throughout your entire time at Bethlehem Central Schools. But, the real question is, do you want to spend approximately three and a half more days of your life on iReady lessons?
