It is sad to see state policies forcing school districts to change their focus from college admissions to college readiness. We are lowering the ambitions of so many first-gen students. It is painful to watch.

@Eduflack It would be interesting to see how they ranked their primary responsibilities as a principal. For example, Teacher Retention vs Accountability vs Engaged Parents.
