For instance, if a student who ranked in the 60th percentile tests higher at the end of the year, the teacher gets a better rating. If the student falls, the teachers rating falls.

There can be dramatic differences in how well teachers improve test scores even in the same school. That a teachers level of education is not a measure of how good a teacher is.

Its because teachers dont have textbooks. We have 40 children in a classroom. Art and music programs have been eliminated. Reporter still, some l. A. Teachers, like rudy, working in a system that lays off based mainly on seniority, thinks assessing performance is fine. You need to make sure that the teachers you do keep are the best. Reporter proponents say teachers should face public scrutiny. Others argue that there is no test for the best measure of a teacher, one who can inspire a child to learn. Barry petersen, cbs news, los angeles. A controversy that is sure to continue. That is the cbs morning news for this friday. Thanks for watching.
