Dr. Allan Markley was the featured speaker at this months Raytown Chamber of Commerce luncheon. RaytownOnline.com was there and recorded his presentation. The presentation focused on the recent Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education’s (DESE) report on Raytown’s and every other accredited school in Missouri’s scores on the latest version of testing usually refered to as MSIP5. Dr. Markley also addressed recently proposed State laws that may have dramatic effects on education.
One proposed law could result in school districts being required to fire teachers whose students do not test at grade level. An obvious flaw is the failure to take into account how many students were close to grade level when they entered a teachers classroom for the first time.
