A-F grade changes cause concern
(by Kim Archer and Andrea Eger, Tulsa World)
Lead:
The first A-F school grades sent to districts for their 10-day review have changed five or six times since their release Wednesday due to miscalulations by the State Department of Education.

The State Dept of Education is in absolute disarray. I really hope they get some new leadership that can turn things around.

The only concern the A-F grading scale should raise is the reflection
of the parent.

Imaginary Illustration for the For Real News Item:
A guy in a suit, wearing short pants and a dunce cap,
(with a sign taped to his back that says ODoE)
stands at a blackboard, writing over and over again,
(with slight changes each time):
E=mc + 2
E=mc X 2
E=mc / 2
E=mc hammer
E=mc hammer II
(E=mc cetera) . . .
This just in:
When quizzed about the irony implicit in the Oklahoma Department of Education's miscalculations regarding the grading of schools, an unnamed Educrat replied: "Irony? This ain't got nothin' to do with launderin' nothin'. We caligoricly deny any errors was made."
(Although the Educrat is unfamiliar with the term anonymity, he [or she] remains unnamed on account of the request that we "don't be usin' [his] name.")

No matter how you look at it, it's all relative.
