“As you can see, I’ve memorized this utterly useless fact long enough to pass a test question. I now intend to forget it forever. You’ve taught me nothing except how to cynically manipulate the system. Congratulations.”
This is because many school boards and principals only care about the school statistics, how many students pass the state-mandated tests, average grade points. The best teachers want their students to learn and do their best to teach to the range of academic levels in their class. However, they are often hampered by the powers that be who only care about their image and the next school board election.
