If KIPP is feeding them one story, we have to feed them another.<br />KIPP fed O'Connor. You and Baker tried to respond with analysis, but apparently it was too complicated for the journalist. <br />Apparently one needs to be more blunt. One must say, “These data are meaningless,” or "This refutes the claims that the other side are making," else the message is too subtle for a journalist like O’Connor.Aaron Lercherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13979600035410099276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9025948832913694345.post-65554345056505408522015-05-15T08:11:47.847-07:002015-05-15T08:11:47.847-07:00These charter school cheerleaders are so predictab...These charter school cheerleaders are so predictable. They use terms like traditional schools, traditionalists, entrenched bureaucracies and, the ever popular, status quo. They turn the word traditional into a pejorative, a smear. So supporting the district public schools, the actual real public schools makes me a bad person? How can there be any collegiality between charter schools and the real public schools when the charter cheerleaders are constantly bashing and demonizing the real public schools? Their aim is to marginalize and destroy the actual public schools.<br />Giuseppehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03418801372998968620noreply@blogger.com
