No SC school district lives up to standards
Categories: Classes
No SC school district met its AYP goals, according to this article in the Sun News. A bit depressing, yes, but given SC has some of the toughest standards and tests in the nation, it's not surprising. Clearly, things need to improve, not just in terms of meeting standards, but in terms of thinking about standards, what they mean, and how we use them.
And, the gentleman dressed up in the article's photo was my 9th grade history teacher at Conway High. His name is Russ D'Arienzo, but we called him Mr. D. He's a great teacher.
