Governor's TNReady Listening Tour Ends

After a series of problems this spring, Governor Bill Haslam says he’s being urged not to “re-invent the wheel” for student testing.
It comes as the governor wraps up the final stop Tuesday on his statewide listening tour for the assessment test called TNReady.
There was plenty wrong with TNReady student testing this past April.
Those issues prompted Haslam to go on his statewide listening tour that wraps up in Dyer, Tennessee, after at least five stops the past month.
The governor says he has been impressed with practical solutions being offered about the tests that are a key part of student, teacher and school evaluations, but says there could be tradeoffs with potential changes.
The governor says there will be a full report on what he learned about the student tests as early as next week.
