This presentation is an empty-headed institutional stamp and 'Excellence for all' is already the butthead of jokes in the staff lounge. This administration cannot be taken seriously, because they don't believe in this stuff anymore than you or I.
Let's settle the question of mathematics in elementary school first, before anyone proposes we spend more money reforming high school. Let some other idiot fall on their sword first. Our union is finally tackling standards by proposing schools remove standardized testing from second grade (a major waste of money and time).

That would explain why so much of "Excellence for All" is neglected and never mentioned in the quarterly updates.
I wonder if the school board directors care about this neglect?
Actions speak louder than words. SPS's plan for education is reshaping the demographics of Seattle.
