#TBATs This can't be said enough! Being 'Proficient' on the NAEP test means 'above average.' Also, it's independent of state standards, so material might be totally different than what has been taught. The PUBLIC needs to know. b/c public schools are being beat up over scores.

There's a lot of dark money out there buying ads and telling lies, ignore them. Get out and VOTE! #TBATs #VoteBlueIn2022 #VoteBlueForDemocracy #Vote4PublicSchools
