I’ll be AWOL from Booman Tribune for about a week, as I’m traveling to visit my son in Pittsburgh (and to see how college life is treating him), and then on to Nashville to celebrate my cousin’s wedding. Luckily we have a host of writers posting to the front page and the diaries who more than equal to me in ability, and whose commentaries are likely better than whatever I would have to say about anything. I hope you will enjoy their work. On another note, I sure hope Bush won’t blow up the universe in my absence. I’d hate to miss out blogging about that.

I just read Bob Hebert’s piece on incessant testing and I though of an intriguing idea – what if the money that has been put into NCLB was instead redirected toward tax cuts in the form of increasing the deduction allowed per child based upon their GPA. In other words, parents whose children do well are rewarded monitarily, because all things being equal the biggest difference between children who succeed and children who fail is parental involvement. Now it seems silly that you should have to bribe parents to take an active interest in their children’s learning, but I think it could be much more cost-effective then throwing more paper (tests) at the problem.
