Florida spends less than one half of one percent of the total investment in public education on the testing program (FDE, 2012). That is $59 million out of $16.5 billion. Yet the norm-referenced requirement was pulled from the testing program due to the costs of implementing the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test (FCAT) (FDE, 2012). The implementation of an academic testing program can have substantive benefits for both students and educators. One of the most important benefits is the establishment of high expectations for student academic performance (FDE, 2012). In addition, because of the deliberate integration of tests across the curriculum, linkages are more likely to be established and the curriculum can be solidly integrated, which fosters deeper understanding (FDE, 2012). An ideal goal for Florida's public school assessment configuration would be one that capitalizes on the synergistic capabilities of high academic standards and to resist public pressure to modify standards when the progress slope is less than desirable (Roschewski, 2001).

The fight for Guadalcanal was the result of the Japanese attempt to secure other valuable acquisitions in the Pacific Theater and to disrupt Allied military efforts in that Theater. Having successfully seized control of the Philippines, British Malaya, Singapore and the East Indies, the Japanese sought to protect those interests by seizure of additional islands. In addition, the Japanese sought to increasingly disrupt effective cooperation among Allied forces in the Pacific Theater by seizure of secondary islands. Guadalcanal was one of those secondarily seized islands. Aware of the importance of these islands, the Allied forces monitored Japanese movements throughout late 1941 and early 1942, though the U. S. Navy had suffered significant losses and was in some respects insufficient to successfully fight Japanese forces at that time. The Naval Battle of Guadalcanal was essentially Japan's last major attempt to control the seas surrounding Guadalcanal and/or retake control of the island itself. The battle itself and Allied victory in this battle served as a turning point in the Pacific Theater War, for several reasons. Occurring November 13 – 15, 1942, the Battle's very existence and importance weakened the Japanese overall war effort. Japanese concentration of limited forces for the Battle resulted in a decrease of needed land forces, thereby weakening Japanese war efforts elsewhere. In addition, Allied victory in the Battle succeeded in shifting Japanese efforts from aggression to defense: Japanese actions on and around Guadalcanal provided supplies to existing Japanese troops and evacuated troops rather than providing fresh troops and assertively staging attacks; also, the Japanese entirely retreated from the island in January of 1943 and the Allies were assured of utter control of the island approximately one month later. Finally, Allied victory and Japanese defeat at the Naval Battle of Guadalcanal was a unique key to Allied victory in the Pacific Theater: the United States was then readily able to deliver fresh troops and supplies on Guadalcanal; Guadalcanal proved to be a stepping stone to Allied victories in the entire Solomon chain of islands; and the United States was better able to isolate and neutralize other Japanese bases in the Pacific. Consequently, the Naval Battle of Guadalcanal was just as vital a turning point as was the Battle of Midway in World War II's Pacific Theater.
