  1. Stop blaming teachers for poor student performance

    The Baltimore City Council, spurred by Councilwoman Mary Pat Clarke, deserves praise for its resolution endorsing the Save Our Schools March and National Call to Action, to be held in Washington, D.C., on July 30. This march, and the national attention it brings to the plight of our public schools, is long overdue — especially as it falls on the heels of the mass hysteria around blaming teachers for the questionable lack of student performance on high-stakes tests.

  9. No more time to lose

    Having won a windfall of federal education dollars as a result of its successful Race to the Top application, Maryland is now faced with putting into practice the sweeping changes it promised to make in the way its teachers are evaluated. But the state has already fallen significantly behind its original schedule, and it looks as if the new procedures won't go into effect fully before 2014 at the earliest. Maryland school department officials need to get this right; any further delays could put at risk the $250 million in additional U.S. Department of Education funding so many people, from retiring state schools Superintendent Nancy S. Grasmick and Gov. Martin O'Malley on down, worked hard to get.
