The school year starts in Nevada tomorrow, but at WCSD there are all kinds of challenges in store, including a superintendent who is completely unqualified to lead a school district, a graduation rate that is said to be flat for the past year, and a "teacher incentive fund" grant that will fail miserably but gives a make-work job to somebody who should have had her ass fired four years ago.

The new system requires educators to set professional growth goals and meet them.

“There’s an element worked into the new system that principals and teachers work in collaboration toward professional growth as opposed to traditional evaluation,” Kendrick said. “It’s mandatory now for principals and teachers to set up the growth plans.”
