Broward school parents were treated to this line from the Sun-Sentinel last week:
“Broward schools struggled compared with Miami-Dade and Palm Beach counties, receiving the smallest proportion of A’s and the largest proportion of F’s.”
Let me repeat the relevant clause: Broward schools received “the smallest proportion of A’s and the largest proportion of F’s.”
After more than 4 years at the helm, Superintendent Robert Runcie’s achievement is to do worse than the neighboring Miami-Dade and Palm Beach Counties.
So what does Runcie and his six-figure staff of spinners say?
“The Broward County School District was celebrating the fact it earned slightly more A’s this year – 69 compared to 63, and that two-thirds of schools maintained their grades. Additionally, four schools jumped to A’s from C’s: Charter School of Excellence at Davie, Excelsior Charter of Broward in Tamarac, charter school Franklin Academy in Cooper City, and district-operated Tropical Elementary in Plantation,” reported the Sun-Sentinel.
