[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks for the posts above. So my suspicion is right - no (comparable) data out there as it looks now to conduct such analysis. I do appreciate the demographics factor view. What bothers me is that it is a word of the mouth which drives perceptions, and not data. Cross-state comparisons would make it plain and simple clear which state/county is failing its kids. And which state/county provides lessons to learn from. Foundation for the future is laid at the elementary level. Then why comparable data issue is not a federal concern? [/quote] To have comparable data you would need a standardized elementary curriculum. That won't happen so long as some states reserve the right to taiilor their curricular materials and teach kids Jesus rode a dinosaur.[/quote]
