State Report card data is available on line. Mr. Pendry explained a bit about the report card. Explaining the indicators, advising us that over 70% of Ohio's schools have "failing grades", 70%?
State of Ohio and the tools used to "measure" student / district progress are a little less than accurate - think about it tests are changing from last year, the "passing percent / target" has changed. Its like comparing apples to oranges.
Picture this, one year trying to make a bullseye with a bow and arrow and the next year throwing rocks at a square target. How does one compare those two things?
