Standardized Testing was an issue 1845 too!

When I taught American history I used to love to find quotes from 100 years ago that could have said today. It always amazed me how accurate the saying “The more things change, the more they stay the same” This weekend I read an interesting article in the NYT Sunday review section. Seems like Standardized testing was an issue in 1845 as well- take a look.
