ALBANY, N.Y., Aug. 22 -- The New York State United Teachers issued the following news release:
New York State United Teachers said state test scores released today are "virtually meaningless."
"They don't count for students or teachers -- and they shouldn't count. They are derived from a broken testing system; are rooted in standards that are no longer being taught; and -- for now -- are the foundation of a totally discredited teacher evaluation . . .
