Is Florida testing students too much? Why there's not an easy answer

PALM BEACH COUNTY, Fla. — WPTV is continuing to dig deeper into Florida test scores just released from the state Department of Education. They show whether students are performing at grade level in a variety of subjects.

This was Florida's second year of the progress monitoring testing style, measuring student success three times throughout the year.

Local school district leaders told WPTV education reporter Stephanie Susskind they really like it. But parents that Susskind spoke to aren't so sure yet.
