Accountability: Parents In Florida May Receive Grades From The Teachers Of Their Children

EdConnections Posted by Dan S. Martin
This is something most of us educators have dreamed of...holding parents accountable...but what if you actually had to assign grades?  Consider the implications of that!

I doubt this gets much traction---and at any rate it is proposed only through third grade---but it is an intriguing topic many of us would like more attention paid to---->the need for active, informed, and constructive parental involvement in the education of young people.

The CNN.com video story below is entitled, "Florida Lawmaker Wants Teachers To Grade Parents."


I'm guessing pure pragmatism would result in a bit of grade inflation!
