GOP for-Profit School Caught Deleting Bad Student Grades

[Calamari]

So much for the idea of for-profit schools solving the NCLB problem.

I agree with that completely.

Oh... she only makes 189.000+ so go ahead and cheat, it's all good!

LOL!

There's nothing about any cheating in your link.

Your link proves that this cheating CEO got 2.4 million more than that Superintendent.

So you missed post 12, huh?

Just about every tenet of business and driving profit is at odds with educational goals. Getting the highest price the market will bear? Product life cycle? Maximize efficiency?

Yes, but. . .


From your link:

The analysis of Ohio's test scores for grades 3-8 from 2005 through 2008 shows unusual spikes in grade level scores at an average of 87 schools per year. During that span, 18 schools in Greater Cincinnati show such patterns. . .

A charter school in Cincinnati's Riverside neighborhood showed such wild swings in test scores.

In 2006, Riverside Academy's fourth-graders' math scores shot up from the bottom fifth in the state to the top fifth, higher than 87 percent of their peers in Ohio. The next year, as fifth-graders, the class scores plunged to the 19th percentile in math. . .

The $200,000 a year superintendent became superintendent in 2008.

So. . .

the 200,000 a year superintendent wasn't the superintendent when the "irregularities" occurred.

Unlike the 2.6 million dollar guy.

..You're right... she wasn't there at the time the cheating was occurring.

My apology to you.

(the local news report is about the Lockland schools which is next to the city line but not part of Cincinnati)

Anyone that has seen the cheating scandals in government/union schools.

Really, why are you trying to change the subject. I guess just a normal day for you. By the way, do you have a valid link.

[musicmd]

Can anyone give a reason why for-profit schools at the K12 level is a good idea? Problems in public schools isn't a good reason for this model.

We have a winner!

Makes you wonder how much of this goes on that isn't uncovered. At the end of the day, a real disservice to the kids.

If TN wants to experiment with online educating, it might be more cost-effective to try it in the public school system.
