Project Dropout: New Film Questions If MCAS Meeting Its Goals

The debate over the MCAS exam is subject of a new documentary produced by Professor Louis Kruger, director of the School Psychology program at Northeastern University.

It's a critical look at the high stakes test and it essentially questions whether the MCAS is meeting the goal and closing the achievement gap and preparing kids for college.

Among the critics in the film is state Representative Carl Sciortino.
