What board members said

I mean, it seems clear that this system is designed to penalize schools that do excellent in the general population, because comparing a disabled subgroup against the general population who is doing very well isn't fair. Um, instead, we should be comparing our subgroups against other school subgroups to see if we're doing as well. That's my opinion.Gregory B.
