Accountability revisions
 

I strongly oppose the revisions. This move will ruin Virginias reputation as a great place for businesses and families to come to if the majority of our schools aren’t meeting ‘the standard’.  Why are you throwing Virginians under the bus?  Work with our ACTUAL education professionals and instructors that are WORKING in our schools to see what is needed and LISTEN to their expert opinion. Your fellow Virginians who are education professionals are NOT your enemy, do NOT discount what they know works and doesn’t work in their classroom. Thank you.
