As a teacher, you only have bosses, all of whom are getting bossier. Administrators say 'no, you're wrong' to teachers almost never, and just the idea of saying that parents of students aren't customers, and the customer's always right, is outrageous.

Duncan was right: The reason a lot of suburban parents balked at the CC-based tests was because it showed their brilliant children with 4.0 to 6.0 averages were pretty much average.

We can't even name the reasons for American education's problems so we can't fix them.
