The Advocate-Messenger: Conferees say Kentucky’s schools have not produced adequate numbers of college and career-ready students

Here is the local newspaper’s ‘take’ on comments from our own Jim Waters and others at the recent Danville-Boyle County Chamber of Commerce 2011 Public Policy Series meeting on education.

Writes the Messenger:

“Kentucky Commissioner of Education Terry Holliday, Kentucky Chamber of Commerce President/CEO Dave Adkisson, Danville Superintendent Carmen Coleman and Bluegrass Institute for Public Policy Solutions Vice President of Communications Jim Waters — agreed that previous Kentucky education “reform” has failed to produce adequate numbers of college- and career-ready students and schools today must pick up the slack.”
