So we just left school and already the results are coming out. The TEA released the list of the schools, according to the report, worst schools in Texas based on achievement below 50% or around that number. So while in our last post the mighty board was celebrating by licking their hefty pay raises, our schools continue to fail. But of course it's not their fault, let's blame it on the Principals and Teachers.
So I am sure Sorum is making his case on how he would improve the schools so that he can get the job, but let's not forget SORUM, YOU CAUSED THIS MESS! All the way down to your executors- Breed and Company. The list seems to be one sided as has been for a long time, East Side schools are stuck! So we can see why Ms. Jackson would not want her daughter to have the Scarlett Letters- WORST SCHOOL IN TEXAS- so she gets to attend Paschal HS. I wonder if Jackson will consider allowing the children at the East side schools to be bused to the performing schools? I mean it doesn't matter if they have to ride for an hour or more, they deserve the best just as much as her child but of course since it's not her children, who cares.
Remember this!
Board Members- when will the bleeding stop, when will you understand that the policies for years have not yielded results. How are you measuring the impact the highly paid consultants are having on student achievement? How are the SCAs tracking how the standards are being met? Where is the data? Why are we not hearing how our children are doing? Stop listening to garbage at board meetings and ask the real questions. Do we need to go past 39 schools in the FWISD as low performing for you to open your eyes?
WHAT IS AN ACCEPTABLE LEVEL OF CASUALTIES?
