No one can argue that these factors do not present profound challenges to system-wide success. The school system should operate more like a business. Metro Schools need better focus and accountability. Parent and community support is not strong enough. Some schools make parents and visitors unwelcome.
Some teachers make excuses and have low expectations.
The school system is top-heavy. School discipline is terrible. Teachers don't have enough support. Instruction methods and school data management have changed little in of rapid changes in technology. Principals are not prepared to be managers.
