Goodloe-Johnson: Goals without stragegies

The Seattle school district is enjoying a froth of media attention over Dr. Goodloe-Johnson's new plans (pdf) for improvement. Unfortunately, the plans offer plenty of goals, but are thin on concrete strategies to reach those goals.

This is a constant problem in Washington State public schools, where those in leadership envision fantastic outcomes, but seem consistently unable to meet them.

I've started a new blog, WashingtonEdblog.com, to cover education issues in Washington State. As a high school teacher with decidedly non-WEA ideas, I am trying to offer the unique perspective of an outsider on the inside.

1. Good blog. I like a lot of what you're saying.

Unfortunately, until changes such as the things you suggest are implemented, I'm going to have to stick with homeschooling my kiddo.
