The ideal situation would be to have NATIONAL curricula, accepted by every state in the Union
The ideal situation would be to have NATIONAL curricula, accepted by every state in the Union, and have the tests measure progress in learning the essentials of the national curricula. In that case, the teachers would be able to "teach to the test," and the test results would be relevant for their local purposes (e.g., grading). Such a program would save teachers a lot of work.
But really, does it make any sense at all to have curriculum determined at the local level?
The attitude has taken hold among many educators, and the general public, that 'testing' is somehow bad, threatening, unfair, or counterproductive. This certainly need not be the case.

No. It's the fact that the kids are doing between 12-24 standardized tests a year-that don't do jack.
