Dear Kara
I hate to say it, but as mother to a 12th grader too, I'll rephrase your
sentence ...
As a parent of high school students, eliminating the TEXT BOOKS ALONG THE
YEAR altogether would save me hundreds of shekels a year.
Since after all... most pupils don’t even bother to use their text books
along the school year, they have become used to wait for the MIKUDIM... and
learn only for the tests
The past 3 years I've become used to throw away almost as new and unused
text books, that have been replaced with MIKUDIM books, that,
unsurprisingly, were totally used... 
Now this newspaper post has reinforced this well-known reality (denied by
some though) that teachers given a MIKUD in the beginning of the year would
adapt the learning goals accordingly...
And pupils will dictate a test oriented learning

Hi Laurie and all,

Read the headline and article again. They are not getting rid of the Mikud,
just publishing it at the beginning of the year. It means that they assume
that everyone has always been "teaching to the test", now they will just
have more time to do it.

As a parent of high school students, eliminating the mikud altogether would
save me hundreds of shekels a year.
