I taught there for one year, one of the few teachers to make it through the year without quitting. The students there seem really great at first, but once they get comfortable,they just will not stop talking long enough to let you teach. It is rediculous!

About the tests


In 2010-2011 Nevada used the Criterion Referenced Test (CRT) to test students in grades 3 through 8 in reading and math, and in grades 5 and 8 in science and writing. The CRT is a standards-based test, which means it measures specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Nevada. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.
