It is not clear exactly what the growth model requires. Search results for "growth model" on the PA Dpt of Ed's AYP website:
Search Results
No results found for "growth model"
It would have looked better to change the rules BEFORE they knew what the results were.
Growth model, eh? Again, the ivory tower crowd takes credit for something that they had little to do with---kind of like the supervisory staff of the ELA department in PPS.
It was teaching, friends...good, solid, patient, caring teaching.
Forgive me, what is ELA?
