Instead of bitching about this why don't you lobby to get band included on the test.

If kids should be learning it in school then it should be on the test.
Should they be learning it in school?

The arts cultivate thought and reflection.
The greatest periods of technological advancement were also the greatest artistic periods.
This is not a coincidence.
The greatest artistic periods were financed by religious propaganda wars back when art and architecture were the primary advertising mediums.

Kinda hard to justify band or art when you can't figure out 2+2.

Perhaps if kids weren't continually getting more retarded every passing year we wouldn't have to set incredibly-low bar exams to actually force them to learn something

Art, music and sports should be the parents responsibility, we can't afford it anymore.

In the last 35 years we've doubled our spending per pupil (in inflation adjusted dollars.)
We could afford all that stuff 35 years ago and we were spending half as much.

It's always funny seeing people bitch about graduation rates and then in the same breath lobby for the elimination of programs that actually keep some kids in school who otherwise would not be there. There is a word for that kind of logic...

They're replacing art and music and extracurricular stuff with test prep.
They learn while doing art and music. I know you believe this too. I know you don't think they only learn from math and science.
