Moms in Scarsdale, New York took to the streets this month to protest too many tests. Meanwhile, the House just passed President Bush’s education plan,which requires annual reading and math tests in grades 3-8. It’s a nationwide debate over testing and accountability … and how much is enough. Laura's guests are Lil Tuttle, the Education Director of the Clare Booth Luce Policy Institute, and Dennis Murphy, a lobbyist for the NH chapter of the National Education Association.
