Stricklands education plan

"In the midst of fiscal crisis, Ohio governor unveils transformation of education"

Since there are sparse details about this plan, one just has to ask questions:

If we are not going to have a standardized high-school graduation test to allow students to graduate, and we are going to require all to take the ACT, will there be a score requirement to graduate?

Just taking the test means nothing.

Here's a previous post on testing.

One more thought on this. If the OEA loves this proposal, the tax payer should be very wary.

No matter how much money we throw at education (with no corresponding improvements), it will never be enough for the teacher's unions. Of course, as mentioned before, as long as the unions give campaign contributions to democrats...democrats are more than happy to take your money and give it to the unions.
