Waiver?

Kentucky's (among others) school performance dropped--13% fewer schools were making Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP), so they want a waiver from NCLB requirements.

Says, the Commissioner of Education, "This is a signal that the NCLB system is no longer fair, valid or reliable."


Hmmm.  I wonder if it would be a signal of unfairness, invalidity and/or unreliability if scores rose 13%.
