Camden Test Probe

You knew this was coming. The student proficiency test scores in Camden have sunk like a rock.

A statement by the Camden County School said publicity, staffing changes and other factors could have affected the students' performance on the tests.

Concerns about the possibility of cheating heightened last week with the release of plummeting district test scores. Education experts say a wider probe into Camden is warranted.

You don’t say. And just think it only costs state taxpayers about $16,000 a year to cheat children out of a decent education. I hope they throw the book at those responsible.
