test scores, now should be considered along with other performance measures, such as observation-based assessments and a teacher's demonstration of leadership
Sounds like an Affirmative Action program. Objective measures yield to political factors to effect equality of outcomes.
This Race->Top program is just another education gimmick. How many more BILLIONS of dollars and GENERATIONS of young people are we prepared to waste until we recognize the obvious: public education is a CATASTROPHE, and cannot be reformed.
Jaycee Dugard was abducted at age 11. Her tent-schooled kids test well ABOVE their grade levels. Can any of you reform-minded public education advocates explain that? Should we make Garrido our state Superintendent?
