I'm just looking for who to rank my 1. Rini? GG? ANYONE? So sad no one is really talking schools in a way I agree with. This city is the realm of the rising child-free elite.[/quote]

Curious what GG is saying about schools that you don't agree with?[/quote]

Here is Goodweather's plan for education:

https://www.goodweatherfordc.com/education

some highlights -- he wants to make sure kids don't pass through 3rd grade without being able to read:

"The 3rd grade checkpoint is an intervention trigger, not a punishment. Every student who does not meet the benchmark receives an Individual Reading Plan, parent notification within 10 days, summer reading support, and access to free one-on-one tutoring. There are multiple retest windows and good-cause exemptions for English language learners, students with IEPs, and those already receiving long-term intervention. Mississippi uses this model. It produced the largest NAEP reading gains in the country."

He also wants to reform IMPACT:

Teacher accountability and teacher voice are not opposites. The current IMPACT system was designed without meaningful teacher input, and teachers have no right to bargain over how they are evaluated. Reform means bringing teachers to the table — not eliminating high standards. The goal is an evaluation system that teachers trust because they helped build it, with metrics that reflect the full scope of what good teaching looks like.

Hes been endorsed by the DC Charter School Action advocacy group.

He didn't say IMPACT was poor in the WTU survey.[/quote]

Here is Goodweather's WTU survey:

It is a bad sign that McDuffie didn't even fill one out. [/quote]
