      <![CDATA[How can you weight buildings and assessments higher than student achievement? It does not matter how nice the building is, or the fancy tests and metrics. If the student do not learn. We no longer educate students in Arkansas, we have a yearlong test prep course. That is not education that is regurgitation.

      <![CDATA[It makes perfect sense; if the previous casseroles tasted like feces, then the taste of raw sewage would constitute an improvement.<br>

      <![CDATA[It's crazy to say that we're number five in edu but get a D grade in achievement.  That's like saying this casserole is the best EVARRR, except that it tastes like raw sewage.
