I am not certain that the resources exist to accurately track students such that parents are well notified. But even if they were, what recourse do parents have? While a PTA is a wonderful idea, that still would not change the fact that only 15 percent of teachers meet the academic requirements to teach. Surely, it is bad that students are not performing well, but who is to say they are not doing their best based upon the level of education they have received? What we should be asking is how can teachers become better educators?
