I know most of the attention is on the competency determination for tomorrow's #MAedu Board of Ed meeting; note a proposed shift in the state accountability system is also on the agenda: doe.mass.edu/bese/docs/fy20…

(all those in favor of the Department being banned from using the word "lite" as if we're talking about cream cheese?)

ok, seriously, though, it's--going to say this publicly--it's a thoughtful phase-in (and even responses to public comment, for those who wondered if that ever happened).

I'd love it if someone would ask how the state still not setting targets interacts with the SOA requirements, though? #MAEdu

(I'm not complaining that this still doesn't work; it was an exercise in compliance that was not in any way touching the issues SOA was intended to solve. However, the requirement remains on the books.)
