Hmmmmm. No comments related the a similar situation in PPS.
Why no information on proficiency in PPS? The student scores were out in early June, weren't they? And the school scores were out in July, right?
Does Pittsburgh know if they have a chance of moving up and out of 494th place in PA?
What changes have been made based on this year's proficiency rates or lack thereof?
Will PPS change curriculum? Will they give real school leader some ability to lead their own schools apart from central office?
Will teachers be able to implement in ways that meet student needs and culture?
School is about to begin and we have not heard anything? Doesn't sound good, does it?
Is there anyone out there who cares?
Hmmmmm.
