The State Board of Education got a look at results of teacher evaluations that showed that in 13 school districts, teachers are very, very good at helping children learn. In fact, nearly 97 percent of the 972 teachers evaluated in the 2008-09 school year were proficient, accomplished or distinguished.
Anyone who has been a public school teacher knows that most teacher observations and evaluations are a joke.
