- @cgaribal graduation rates and test scores by race and ethnicity. This essentially meant that school districts — including suburban ones in reply to cgaribal #
- @cgaribal could simply ignore poor and minority students as well as students in special ed. Meanwhile, ed schools weren't held #
- @cgaribal accountable for improving the quality of their training because there was no objective data to measure performance in reply to cgaribal #
- @cgaribal of teachers and the students in their care. Thanks to accountability, you can now call institutions and adults on the carpet in reply to cgaribal #
- @cgaribal for not providing kids, especially black males and poor kids of all races, high-quality education. AYP has forced states in reply to cgaribal #
- @cgaribal to look at all students. It has also forced the important conversations about how to improve teacher quality, including in reply to cgaribal #
- @cgaribal the role of ed schools in recruiting aspiring teachers w/strong subject competency, the ability to lead classrooms, in reply to cgaribal #
- @cgaribal and care for kids no matter who they are or what their economic background may be, and training teachers properly. in reply to cgaribal #
- @cgaribal Accountability isn't perfect at this point. But it has finally forced discussions that need to be had. in reply to cgaribal #

- @cgaribal How can you prove achievement doesn't equal learning? If anything, if you can't pass the test, you haven't exactly learned in reply to cgaribal #
- @cgaribal anything. That's the reality. As the research is slowly showing, testing is a critical element of learning. in reply to cgaribal #

- @cgaribal In any case, No Child is a first step in changing what happens in classrooms. It has taken a decade to even get in reply to cgaribal #
- @cgaribal people to agree that there are achievement gaps, that what goes on in trad. public ed doesn't work. in reply to cgaribal #
- @cgaribal In essence, the change is slow, largely because there is the conflict of visions as evidenced in this discussion. in reply to cgaribal #

- @cgaribal That's the reality. Whether or not you want to agree is your choice. in reply to cgaribal #
