To make Nevada eligible for a grant, legislators must repeal a law that bans using student test scores for purposes of evaluating teachers.
This situation represents everything that is WRONG with public education. Washington politicians dangle unconstitutional education money (pork) in our faces. Our crooked politicians scramble back into (yet another unnecessary) session to get their hands on the loot, so they can redistribute it to their friends. CCSD hires more education lawyers to file exemptions and figure out how to comply, grant writers to beg for more money, and administrators to provide "oversight". A new bureaucracy composed of statisticians, IT, etc gets created to manage all these new teacher evaluations. CCEA hires labor lawyers to challenge any evaluation criteria which might threaten the job of an incompetent teacher. And on and on and on. Is this a NIGHTMARE of central planning or what?!
Somewhere along the line a CCSD 12th grader is expected to learn how to construct a simple sentence and convert a fraction into a real.
