A survey of certification-test scores yields alarming results
By CHRIS DAVIS and MATTHEW DOIG
More than half a million Florida students sat in classrooms last year in
front of teachers who failed the state's basic skills tests for teachers.
Many of those students got teachers who struggled to solve high school math
problems or whose English skills were so poor, they flunked reading tests
designed to measure the very same skills students must master before they
can graduate.
These aren't isolated instances of a few teachers whose test-taking skills
don't match their expertise and training. A Herald-Tribune investigation has
found that fully a third of teachers, teachers' aides and substitutes failed
their certification tests at least once.
The Herald-Tribune found teachers who had failed in nearly every school in
each of the state's 67 counties.
