iPads: LETTER FROM DR. DEASY RESETTING PHASES 2 & 3 OF THE COMMON CORE TECHNOLOGY PROJECT

by John E. Deasy to the board of education, via email

  • “We have learned a great deal from this initial phase that will allow us to improve the rollout to additional students if the Board decides to move forward with this initiative.”

  • “The administration is ready to revise our implementation plan …”

  • “…we will not request authorization for the next planned phases of the CCTP at the BOC meeting on October 30th or at the Board of Education meeting on November 12th. Instead, we will collect your feedback and guidance on October 29th and, then, make any necessary adjustments, so that we can take a plan to the BOC in November and to the Board in December.”

If I were the board I would hand this back to him and tell him to do his job - like working out the problems and setting the policies - of which many are still needed. The public - or at least the board - needs to see all the "data" he claims he has and see his solutions to those problems. He's just trying to dump the bad publicity on the board. I hope the board doesn't take his bait.
