[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Blanket statement. How do you support that claim? Are you in one of the 40/40 schools? [quote=Anonymous]Schools are better period! Being a former student of multiple DCPS schools and now being a teacher, I can attest to the fact that things are better. Things are not as well as some may say and def not as bad a critics would have you believe. I think IMPACT is still necessary considering we have tons of teachers who would relax if not for the evaluations and the known fact that they can be removed if they aren't doing what's expected. LEAP on the other hand is a MISS! It needs to be redone to support all teachers and not just new teachers or struggling teachers. I think Jason did a solid job and he has good intentions. Good luck with him![/quote][/quote] It's all smoke and mirrors, just an illusion. Gentrification has accounted for the jump in test scores, which are wholly still in the toilet. It's looks all shiny and good on the outside but the inside is rotten; however, a lot of folks jump started their careers and got rich (downtown) off of the backs of our children. At lets not even talk about the cheating scandals, what happened to those kids in the schools were cheating occurred. They were never offered intense remediation to makeup for the fact that they weren't truthfully at the level their test scores said they were, and as for the teachers who got those children next year - were they told? They were probably fired because they couldn't show growth. Nice buildings EOTP but half full, overcrowding elsewhere! [/quote]
