Almost No Teachers In District's Low-Performing Schools Considered 'Ineffective'

Almost No Teachers In District's Low-Performing Schools Considered 'Ineffective' [Michigan Capitol Confidential]:
"For the last two years, every high school student in the Lansing School District received a letter from the district stating that all three high schools are on the state’s low-performing watch list.
The letters are mandated after a school is designated as one of the worst performing in the state by finishing in the bottom 5 percent academically.
Yet, according to the district, the effectiveness of its teachers is increasing significantly while it has had more schools put on the state’s low-performing watch list."
