Apples, Oranges, & The Myth Of Grading Schools: The True Goals Behind Bad Education Policy – Exceptional Delaware 2017:Apples, Oranges, & The Myth Of Grading Schools: The True Goals Behind Bad Education Policy
Atnre Alleyne came out with a blog post this morning supporting a Governor Carney idea where Delaware rates schools with stars. Of course he did! I don’t care what you label them with: stars, letter grades, numbers, or rocket ships. It all translates to a comparison between apples and oranges.

Self-Serving Agendas
Recently a coalition of 24 community and business groups also sent the Department a letter with recommendations for the state’s ESSA plan that called for a “single summary rating for schools and districts…in order to ensure clarity for parents and community members.”
And who led that band of public education marauders, disguised as organizations wanting to help public education? Who corralled and convinced these 24 mostly non-profits who would benefit from what Alleyne wants? Who was also on the Governor’s Advisory Committee for the state ESSA plan and in a Apples, Oranges, & The Myth Of Grading Schools: The True Goals Behind Bad Education Policy – Exceptional Delaware 2017:
