Whiz kids School, a school in a small town in Africa was in need of improvement for the last five years. Unless 58 percent of students passed the math portion of the standardized test and 67 percent passed the language arts portion, school could be closed down. Its students would be separated and bussed across town to different schools. Mr. Tom, The Principal of the school had pushed his students to work harder than they ever had in preparing for the test. But he knew that it would be difficult for many of them to pass. Tom had changed their students' answers on the standardized tests under the guise of erasing stray pencil marks. He asked the other teachers to do the same. Benet, a Math's teacher found the exams of students who needed to get a few more questions right in order to pass. He changed their answers. The students would lose their neighborhood school and the community that had developed within it if the teachers did not do this. Thanks to Tom and other teachers, the school students did better than ever on the standardized tests. Jack, a former student at Parks at the time, recalled, "Everyone was jumping up and down," after a teacher announced the school had met the goals of No Child Left Behind for the first time. After six months, 25 agents of the Central Bureau of Investigation visited Whiz kids and other African schools.
