- Can you stand one more piece about the success – or lack thereof – of the Cleveland Plan prior to the election? Me too! And here it is, on the topic of how progress toward graduation is tracked for every high school student in CMSD. (Cleveland Plain Dealer, 11/5/16)
- Hopes for that “quick” strike in Louisville seem to be evaporating. From what I understand, teachers are on the picket lines again today – Day 4. Over the weekend, a community event was held in a local park to “reunite” students and their striking teachers. Tears were abundant, I gather. Two things of note (to me at least): the organizer of the event is, I would say, in something of a tough spot during this strike, given her various family connections to the district; and what’s with the other nearby school districts having formed a new sports league former member without Louisville? Sounds stone cold to me, but I may be focusing on the wrong things here. (Canton Repository, 11/6/16)
