The new report cards are out. I am not in the least surprised that Toledo Public School District has declined to an "academic watch" status, the equivalent of a grade of D.
The TPS Board of Education as an entity is running on less than half-a-tank and the administration is a pound-shy and a-penny-short. In other words, neither is much good, let alone exemplary. So, what can anyone expect from such a lack-luster institution?
New dynamic blood is needed in the administration and on the Board. I do not question anyone's sincerity or commitment. I do believe they are ready and willing; they just aren't able -- for whatever reason.

For more on the topic of education, I draw your attention to an entry from my other blog, Roland's Ramblings. The entry is entitled Education in the United States of America.
See my comment on GCJ regarding this issue. It essentially concludes that the issue is too political, when the issue is clear. The politics needs to stop, and the solutions need to come afront.
Kurt, it is my opinion that everything in human inter-personal relations is political.
What isn't?
If you remove the politics, you remove the human factor.
