Donia Gobar
Elementary School Teacher (and former physician)
Newton
Natick, Massachusetts

"Human beings cannot be measured as objects. Learning is a complex and individualized process that is based on students' life experiences and their complicated physiological mechanisms, especially so with students who have special needs.

"NCLB is unfair and unjust in its present form, and it is producing wrong and misleading reports—thus misrepresenting the excellent quality of education offered by our teachers at my school and misrepresenting the actual abilities of our students."
