Patty Murray actually said...

"Quality is what the adults do with kids."

"We have really got to focus on quality control of programs that are known to work."

"Whenever we have this discussion about assessments, we get back to are we going to have a test that we hand these kids, and if they pass, then the teacher is doing well?"

"I come to this not just as a U.S. Senator, but as a mom who put my kids through school."
