[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Well, according to the links you provide, FFX and APS systems both fail to meet AYP, so there's that parity. By that definition they both are failing schools. AYP is generally understood to be a poor metric. [/quote] APS failed to make AYP in more categories than FFX. It might have done better if it had followed Fairfax's lead with more differentiated programs and assistance. [/quote] If the metric is flawed, the failures by category are immaterial. The metric is flawed. Of course our entire approach to education in this country now is flawed, thanks to Bush, Ted Kennedy and John Boehner.[/quote]
