School testing is sold as a concept to help keep children and schools up to par. The actual goal of school testing is:

• Test the schools to see how productive they are.
  
• Schools that are behind can be puninshed by having their funding cut to where they are eventually closed.
  
• School can more to a voucher system paid for by taxes where rich kids can go to good school and poor kids like me can go to shitty ones.
