More flexibility. States and districts must empower schools and principals, develop student-based funding policies, and reinvent education management.
* Better accountability. States and districts should hold individuals and organizations responsible for performance, reform teacher pay, and develop stronger data systems for the collection and dissemination of information.
* More capacity. To makes schools flexible and innovative, states and districts should provide teachers with focused professional development and encourage the research and development of promising practices.
* Stronger reform environment. States and districts should support efforts to create common academic standards as well as promote the development of entrepreneurial organizations.
Given how bad administrators are in public schools, the LAST thing we need is to give them MORE power.
Of course these bastards want to do away with the "step system" of teachers' salaries, which are roughly based on the civil service system.
