[quote=Anonymous]I'm not generally a fan of the unions, but I do highly value education. And I do think the teachers' union has a legitimate concern with tying children's standardized test scores to a teacher's performance evaluation. If you have a class of lower-income, at-risk children, you are much more likely to have lower test scores. Unless there is some method of protection in the evaluation system that accounts for this, such a performance measure could be disasterous for many otherwise great teachers. I understand the need for objective criteria that measures performance. This likely is one of those government ideas that sounds great on paper, but causes all kinds of trouble in practice. [/quote]
