Created at : 05/05/12 8:41 AM

Status :@JayRichieRich you can't seriously use the music business as your example of why kids don't need to graduate hs/college
Created at : 05/05/12 8:40 AM

Status :@JayRichieRich how could you support that statement with all the evidence to the contrary?
Created at : 05/05/12 8:39 AM

Status :@JayRichieRich that is not a true statement. If they don't graduate high school/college their life prospects are significantly changed
Created at : 05/05/12 8:39 AM

Status :@JayRichieRich my point remains that students will ultimately bear the consequences of the system. Their lives /livelihoods are on the line
Created at : 05/05/12 8:35 AM

Status :@JayRichieRich you seem to have a lot of faith in teachers but none in principals. Then you blame students for any failures.
Created at : 05/05/12 8:33 AM

Status :@JayRichieRich this is going in circles. If you want to just let teachers teach for life regardless of effectiveness, just say it
Created at : 05/05/12 8:32 AM

Status :@JayRichieRich so, if you don't buy test scores as the sole measure, then you have to introduce subjectivity. Which means empower principals
Created at : 05/05/12 8:27 AM

Status :@JayRichieRich I have no doubt that it's difficult. All the more reason to make sure we have the best teaching corps. And to pay well!
Created at : 05/05/12 8:22 AM

Status :@JayRichieRich it doesn't have to be completely uniform and top-down to be valid. Only way to do that is to make it strictly test scores
Created at : 05/05/12 8:21 AM

Status :@JayRichieRich if you assume there's no way to differentiate between good and bad teachers, this is a useless conversation.
Created at : 05/05/12 8:20 AM

Status :@JayRichieRich because teacher quality has such a significantimpact on the nation's future.
Created at : 05/05/12 8:13 AM

Status :@JayRichieRich not if you hire smart, accountable principals. Why assume principals will be so irresponsible and incompetent?

Status :@DRondeau66 we've had private sector job growth for like 30+ straight months. reduction in govt spending has slowed GDP growth. Indisputable
Created at : 05/05/12 8:09 AM

Status :@DRondeau66 that's why the economy tanked? Because everyone worked for the govt? Interesting reading of economic history.

Status :@JayRichieRich well we need accountability throughout the system and we cant afford a system where adults keep their jobs no matter what
Created at : 05/05/12 7:55 AM

Status :@DRondeau66 I am too!
Created at : 05/05/12 7:53 AM

Status :@JayRichieRich why can any other manager do this but not a principal? this means we have to hire wise principals but they need authority
Created at : 05/05/12 7:47 AM

Status :@DRondeau66 And let's agree that saying a gov job isnt a real job is a repub talking point not based in reality and demeans vital workers.
Created at : 05/05/12 7:45 AM

Status :@JayRichieRich instead of a strict formula, let principals hire, fire, train, promote and develop staff like any other org's leader can
Created at : 05/05/12 7:39 AM

Status :@DRondeau66 of course. And they go hand in hand. Our private sector needs our public infrastructure and education system to be strong too.
Created at : 05/05/12 7:37 AM

Status :@DRondeau66 government spending absolutely can stimulate growth. And lack thereof (see european austerity right now) can stifle growth.

Status :@JayRichieRich until very recently, teachers had absolutely no tie between their effectiveness and their pay and promotions, etc.
Created at : 05/05/12 6:26 AM

Status :@JayRichieRich students already have a built in accountability. If they don't learn, they don't succeed in life
Created at : 05/05/12 6:24 AM
