And yet, I was at the PTA meeting tonight at Ladysmith Elementary, and my opponent for school board handed out brochures saying it was the “latest information on AYP” and it said ALL Caroline County schools made AYP- but if you actually READ what he handed out, it was from LAST YEAR!

Figures dont lie, but liars can figure!

72% of the schools did make adequate yearly progress (AYP), only 26% failed to make AYP (with 2% still to be determined), which means that four of the six schools in Caroline are in the bottom quartile (25%). Got to love the smell of success…
