What the media, blogs and others are saying about DISD today.

** That EdTrust report has got legs. Britannica Blog uses it, citing some Dallas examples, to wonder aloud if teaching can even be considered a profession anymore: “We don’t have any development program; we don’t reward excellent performance; we don’t have a career ladder; we don’t have high-quality induction; we don’t have supervision and evaluation. We just don’t have the basic elements of a profession.” Yikes.

** Another story with legs: DISD's support for the arts. This got some decent play a few weeks ago when the NEA released a poll on the topic.

** Dallas.org poses a question we kicked around recently: Should trustees limit citizen comment at public meetings?
