The State of Education

Mar. 18, 2008 Posted in Education

Before we spend a whole bunch of money on educational do dads and administrative assistants via school bonds is there a way to measure how well the job being done now?

I mean what is the rank for NC schools compared to others schools in other states?  Are we last or top ten?
Are our problems such that no other state has experienced   them let alone solved them!  Do we even know the goal of NC education?

I generally like to know where I'm going.  Work with people who expect they can do the job.  If the plan fails it is our fault not everyone in the universe. 

So how much reading should Johnny be able to do.  How much math should Mary be able to do.  I would love to know if the students and teachers are doing their part of if the problem is money and expectations.

But we in Guilford do know the state of our education is excellent because Grier was voted the state's Top Superintendent. Of course that is why about 80% of us are happy he removed himself to California.
