120 students at Truman Middle School, moved through their
three years there along with their teachers. It is an old and
interesting idea. It is one of a number of tacks that can be
tried by stakeholders in schools where they are allowed
meaningful participation in the decision making process.
Zsombor Peter reports a wealth of anecdotal support for the
experiment; but cannot report empirical evidence that
it made a difference in the "all important" area of test scores.
Which proves that Zsombor Peter is capable of writing a
newsworthy story.
Which begs the question;
Why won't Zsombor Peter write the even more newsworthy
story about;
the steadfast refusal of the leadership of the APSexcept that he is a coward;
to involve themselves in a candid, forthright and
honest discussion of; administrative role modeling,
standards, and accountability;
afraid to stand up to Paula Maes and her ilk,or he is corrupt;
a willing participant in the effort to cover up;
- the abdication by the leadership of the APS from their obligations as role models ,
- their abject lack of meaningful standards of conduct and competence, and
- their lack of honest accountability to such standards as there are, even the law?
