From watching the Ken Robinson video and reading the article, I think that school are really killing creativity. Most schools just focus on the standardized tests and not on art or music. Really only electives are the creative part of school. All they worry about in normal classes like LAL and math are to finish the curriculum and make their students get good grades on the NJ ASK. When you get to high school all the schools worry about is preparing you for the SAT. For example the high school is having a pre SAT or something like that on like October 17th. I know the SAT is a very important part of school but preparing the high school kids from the beginning of the year is just not smart. Also all the parents care about now is if their kids get good grades on the NJ ASK or not. America is a major country in which school is killing creativity. Creativity should be saved. I agree with Ken Robinson that school is killing creativity.
