Quote:There are soooo many factors that play into what you call a "bad" school. Trust me, there is ALREADY incentive for a school to perform. We feel insane amounts of pressure, especially at this time of year.


Closing schools is an awful idea regardless of reasoning.


Schools are already competing with each other--teachers against teachers, schools vs. schools, districts vs. districts. It hasn't done any good because the problem isn't the schools.
