		<description>In High School, student performance in almost every area is measured by tests.  All that test taking is having an impact. Emily Hanford reports. </description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>There has been a dramatic change in education and it&#8217;s all about numbers.  State and Federal laws now require schools to measure just about everything that can be measured about the performance of their students.  The source of all these numbers is testing, and whether you think testing is good or bad, there&#8217;s no doubt it&#8217;s having a huge impact. Emily Hanford reports from Western Guilford High School for our series &#8220;North Carolina Voices: Studying High School.&#8221;

		<description>High School sports stadiums are still a place where communities come together.  Alison Jones reports for our series "North Carolina Voices: Studying High School." </description>

But the athletic field is still a place where close ties can be made.   Alison Jones reports for our series <a href="http://www.wunc.org/voices">&#8220;North Carolina Voices: Studying High School.&#8221;</a>
